Hi folks,
I'm fairly new to the Digital SLR scene and I was looking for a bit of impartial advice on a particular lens. Now I know the discussion of lenses is very subjective, but to narrow things down a bit there are two lenses for my Canon 350d which I reckon will suit my 'walk about' requirements:
Canon 28-135 f3.5 / 5.6 IS USM Lens
or
Canon 28-200 f3.5 / 5.6 USM Lens
Basically I'm wondering if the 'IS' is good enough for me to really want it at the expense of an extra 75mm of zoom? or does the 'IS' come at the expense of better quality optics etc?
Cheers,
Mike
