If I were in your situation I would go for the 28-135IS. Here are some reasons: 1) The 28-135 has the longest focal range of all lenses. That might be important as it seem to me that you don't have other lenses. 2) The Canon 28-105 and 28-135 have about the same aparture range for a comparable focal distance. So the 28-105 has no advantage in that regard. 3) With wide angle lenses I most often use a big DOF. Therefore, the 2.8 of the Tokina would not be much of an advantage to me (in contrast to bigger focal lengths where I more often use a small DOF). 4) Stoped down there might not be a big difference between the three lenses. Can't talk from experience here, though. 5) If you are not using a tripod and often shoot in low light, slow film, and/or small apartures IS can improve your images a lot.
