Excellent all-round lens for vacation
I've read all the professional reviews on the internet before deciding on the lens type, and I'm not going to copy them. There were 2 disappointed ones (one Christopher Frost Photography on YouTube, one semi-disappointed in TheDigitalPicture), and one of them reverted after this (Christopher Frost Photography, when doing comparison review of 6 lens, put these in 2nd place above just all the others, doing them a better justice). Most other reviews, including PCMag, ePhotozine and LensTip, were giving it high marks for its segment, some being positively surprised by the image that can be produced by such versatile lens. I've tried them on a relatively inexpensive Canon EOS 700D and I don't think I can be much more satisfied for what I was looking for. These deliver very nice macro shots, the zoom range is huge for such small and light lens, and the quality of the resulting pictures is far above what's needed for vacation memories, while the versatility allows capturing everything between a wide landscape and a bird far away.
