Huh? I have the F35-70/3.5-4.5 macro and find it to be a pretty good  
lens overall...

Sorry Godders, I meant that the range of focal length is a bit limiting.
Actually the Coke bottle is better built - the lens is a collection of
plastic bits and pieces assemble into a barrel-shape, just to add insult
to injury ;-)))

On second though. I know what you're going to do with it :-(

Of course not. Canon make an 18-55 but I wouldn't personally consider
any such lens. It's for my wife to use on her *ist DS that we purchased
used from a listmember body-only. At the moment it has a 35-70 macro on
it that's little better than a Coke bottle.

I'm considering an EF 16-35 2.8L but can't afford it unless I sell some
other gear, or maybe some pics...more on that soon!

I bought a new one last December from
www.beachcamera.com for $89 plus $10 shipping.  At the
time it was a little higher than ebay price, but it
comes with one full year of warranty.  The price is
still the same.  I just checked www.nextag.com for
price comparison, and it shows www.tristatecamera.com
selling it for $75 plus shipping.

Did you find one, I think I have few laying about, the 3 *istD's all had
one on it when purchased. I have no idea where they are, but if you need
I can dig a little.

Kind regards

I'd get a Sigma 18-50mm 2.8. No fast Pentax available yet (?).
