Great walk around lens with a good focal range, very happy with this lens.

Ideal walkabout lens; Not too heavy as some people have stated; Excellent range covered , bought to replace 17-85mm lens; Canon cashback bringing price down with 6 months interest free credit was an offer I could not resist; !

I bought one of these EF-S 18-200 with a 500D as a kit 2 years ago and carted it all round Southern, Central and Northern Australia, China and it has served me well as an all rounder.

I bought my 550D with the twin lense kit which included a 18-55 and a 55-200. I only ever used the 18-55 but then 12 months ago I bought the 18-200 lense! It is much more versatile and the 18-200 lense travelled with me all through the US and UK on a two month journey and performed wonderfully.

Superior build quality; Super-sharp images

This is an excellent all around lens (vacation lens). I bought this as a kit for my EOS 50D. As a kit lens I would say it's one of Canon's best kit lenses and very comparable to the cheaper 55-250 in IQ and performance. The build quality is what beats the 55-250 by a long shot.

Great walk around lens; Very sharp at 200mm; good build quality; quiet micro motor AF

Barrel distortion at 18mm; CA at 50mm range; slow AF in low light at 200mm

Being an EF-S design this zoom is one of only a handful of lenses in Canons range that is suitable for use only on APS-C digital SLRs. Buyers who might be thinking of upgrading to a full-frame body in the future could be tempted to steer away from this lens for that very reason but there is no...

If you are not ready to post the review in your site then I will make a video of the faulty lens which was sold by canon e store with bill and details in YouTube and let people new the truth.

A great walkabout and travel lens at a very useful focal length range, this one produces amazing pictures, needless to say. The zoom range is exceptional too. It also features a built-in Optical Image Stabilizer with automatic panning detection feature. A class Canon lens.

Designed to provide a wide zoom range in a compact and lightweight form factor, Canon's EF-S18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS telephoto zoom lens can only be used with cameras that have 'APS-C-sized' image sensors.

Wonderful lens, takes great pictures. I don't have to switch lenes any more from short distance to telephoto, rearrange to focus.
