Chrisku13 Member 56 posts Joined Feb 2007 More info | Interesting shot. I've found my 2.8 zoom handy in low-light situations as well. I can't tell because I'm viewing from an iPod touch, but I'm guessing it could have been sharper with IS on. Any reason you left it off?

So for $400 more the image quality is better than most L's and it's the piece of mind knowing I have a very good range zoom that's fast, has IS, good bokeh, well built and under $1000. I'm just mad I didn't buy it a year ago. Definately!!!!! Worth the extra money Now you know what all the fuss is about over this lens... My Flickr
