I have this lens, love it and find more uses for it than I thought I would. Very sharp. Equal to L glass but just can't be because it is for a crop sensor only.

I would be lost without it. It's a great lens for open landscapes, architectural photography and wide angle close-up work such as museum displays, room interiors, family gatherings, etc. The lens is tack sharp.
On a recent rip to Colorado and New Mexico it was on my camera 90% of the time. I purchased it this year and wish I had done it years ago.
I'll attach a couple of examples.

This is a great lens and when I'm out doing landscape shooting, like in Yosemite for example, I will keep that lens on my EOS 50D
and have a telephoto on my EOS 5D and I'm ready for almost anything.

I also have my tripod with me and I have extra quick release plates attached to both cameras to save time and effort.

I use it on my 7D and I love it! Very sharp and good IQ.

Thanks for the replies! Birdpix, checked out your links and those are great photo's and good documentation. Mr. B thanks for the nice examples. I have read other reports and folks really like the lens. It is kind of expensive but I think it will be worth it.
