Comments about Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens:

For the price, this is an excellent lens. Produces decent and sharp images with my Digital Rebel XT. A much needed upgrade from the non-IS kit lens. Motors for focusing and IS are quiet -- more quiet than the Canon 55-250mm IS. Good deal at [$]
