This is the bigger brother of the 24-85mm and 28-105mm lenses. That gains image stabilisation. It uses a 72mm filter size that is unusual on a Canon lens.
It has fast Ring-USM that offers fast focussing, and full time manual override (you can manually tweak the focus without switch in manual mode, and this will not strain the focus motor). The IS works well, and makes this a very versatile lens.
On a crop body (smaller that 35mm sensor, ie the 300D,350D,400D, or the 10D,20D etc), this isn't very wide angle (28mm is the FOV equivalent to a 45mm) but the 135mm end is very handy.
Quality wise it's probably 75% as good as the 24-105mm L, but this non-L lens is around have the price, and significantly smaller and lighter.
Summary: Handy size and weight, good range of focal length, although not very wide on a crop body. Good value for money, only really bettered by the L lenses at around twice the price.

Fantastic all purpose lensI bought this lens to replace the standard 18-55mm lens supplied with my cannon eos 400d, as a multi purpose "walkaround" lens its fantastic. I use the lens for family and holiday shots, the quality and colours etc are far superior to the standard lens. The close up/macro shots are superb and the zoom isn't bad either, although i would recommend a separate lens for this purpose. I'm not the most steady of photographers and the built in image stabilizer function of this lens has made all my pictures look great. I would personally recommend this lens to anybody, its brilliant!

MID RANGE Canon Telephoto LensReview created: 24/05/08

An excellent mid range telephoto lens, the Image stabalisation enables you to get phgotos in low light that would not have been possible without it. I have 2 of these 1 on a Canon 350D and the other on the 450D and they give excellent results.

Good lens1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
Got the 28-135mm lens today, very happy with it produce better image quality than my previous 17-85mm IS, especially at 135mm side not far behind my 70-200 F4L.The IS function is very useful as well,you really need it if don't like carry a tripod. And it's a beautiful designed lens, dose looks very professional on my 30D and 5D, but the built quality isn't as good as Canon L series,the focusing ring isn't as smooth, it dosn't have the price tag either. Unless you are really really picky on the image quality, or have that much more money want to spend for the 24-105L IS, the EF 28-135MM IS USM would be the best Choice at this focal range, and as the EF lens, 28-135mm can also work on the full frame body like 5D, thats the big advantage over the EFS lenses like 17-85mm IS. Overall it's a great lens,great price,worth every penny.
