I was very surprised when I got it out of the box, it is a lot heavier than expected, which brings along the problem when you have the lens about halfway and look down or up than it opens or closes under it's own weight which is a problem some times but you are likely to be holding the lens anyway. It seems a very pricey lens but you get canons brilliant Image Stabilization (IS) and for a zoom lens it's vital that you have IS especially when using the full zoom. The auto focus is as good as any other lens. it has a very smooth action when zooming in and out which is probably too good and one of the reason it opens under its own weight. It does have a lock to stop the lens opening in your bag but it only holds it at the minimum 18mm. You can tell from just holding it the build quality is excellent.

I am probably being a bit picky I would strongly recommend, brilliant piece of equipment.
