This is probably Canon's best non-L zoom lens. Feels very well made, reliable and nice to use. Not the lightest of zooms but this probably reflects its quality. Its range of 15-85mm is excellent for crop sensor cameras, making it an excellent single lens to own. If you want a longer zoom (and willing to sacrifice some of the wide end), then a good alternative is the Canon EF-S 18-135mm IS nanoUSM, which costs about the same (used).

I have not yet taken many photographs with this lens but it is already evident that it is the best standard zoom I have ever owned. It seems to be the perfect lens for the 550D body, bringing out all the 18MP of detail and giving beautiful smooth skin tones and colour transitions. The stabilizer allows me to take hand-held portrait shots at 1/10 second and 70+mm focal length. I like the fact that the manual focus ring is up at the body end of the lens. I can focus manually and still hold the camera properly. The distance scale under the window is also a good feature. I look forward to trying video with manual focus. The 15-85 is heavier than the (also very good) 18-55 kit lens but I shall carry it gladly. This is my one-lens solution for 99% of the pictures I want to take.
It’s a bit heavy but build solid as a rock . Perfect focal length range for everyday use . Autofocus incredibly fast , smooth and quite. Sharpness allows you to see every hair at your cats fur . Plus great value for money. You can use it with crop or full frame too .

I opted for this one in place of the standard 18-55mm stock lens that came with my Canon DSLR. I'm really pleased with it. It's a bit chunkier than I expected but it's a great lens to have in your bag for both wide angle landscape stuff and more focuses shots.
