I use the lens as my 'normal' lens; it's the one always on my Canon7D. Focus is sharp and the IS function works well. It's lighter than my old 10-200 with a filer size of 62mm vs 72mm. So far, I'm pleased with it (only used it for a month).

I had higher hopes for this lens. The Sigma 17-70 is in my bag and is leaps and bounds better than this lens. The clarity just isn't there and I have to push my ISO in order to get the image. If it's not too late, I'm returning this lens and will do more research and save my dollars to afford a quality lens.

the price was right, and since I like to keep it to one lens when I travel , this makes a lighter , less bulky package of my canon rebel, without losing much telephoto , etc.

This is my first non-canon lens. I am using it with T3i The Good - Solid build. Compact and Lightweight. Fast, accurate, and reasonably quite Auto Focus. Good IQ for the price. Zoom Range (29 - 320 for T3i) Outdoor closeups are great, it gives smooth background blur @200mm. The Bad - It creeps. It can be locked only at 18mm. Some stickiness in zoom mechanism at mid-range. F6.3 is a minor issue, It affects only if you are shooting in poor light with above 80mm zoom and Evaluative metering. Overall - Nice travel/walk-around lens.

Designed exclusively for smaller APS-c size sensors A little soft at high end but all 18-200 lens share this problem. Wife uses this on her Canon 60d.

The Sigma 882-101 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 II DC OS HSM lens is ideal for travel photography with a compact construction and length of just 87.7mm.
This lens features FLD ("F" Low Dispersion) glass elements, which have the performance equal to fluorite glass and SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elements providing excellent correction of color aberration. This Aspherical lens gives excellent correction for all types of aberration and distortion. The Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting, ensuring high quality images throughout the entire zoom range.
Sigma's OS (Optical Stabilizer) system offers effective correction of approximately 4 stops, enabling easy handheld photography. HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) ensures quiet, high-speed auto focus and the inner focus system eliminates front lens rotation, making the lens particularly suitable for using the supplied petal-type lens hood and circular polarizing filters. The rounded 7 blade diaphragm creates an attractive blur to the out of focus areas of images.
