Edixar 200mm f/3.5

A good all around lens - nice for walking around and travel It is hard to beat the quality of the Canon L series lenses - I have quite a few. But for walking around and routine travel it is hard to justify carrying the exelent EF 28-300 L. I love the 28-300 but it weighs a ton and looks like a bazooka. So for convenience with APS C cameras the EFS 18-200 is a great choice. Nice zoom range (29 - 320) equivilent, good resolution and color rendition. I have purchased two of these, one for my wife and one for my daughter. One of these we have had for several years. Works great and delivers fine photos. A good choice for a single multi-purpose lens.

The Best of Compromise Lenses I have tried them all, and the Canon is the best of the all-in-one compromise zoomlenses. It is sharper than Sigma and Tamron, and it has a better F-stop setting at the max focal length.

Fantastic lens! The lens build quality is surprisingly good, image quality good too and the range of mm is fantastic! Truly an all in one lens for all types of photography, works well on my Canon 70D
