I've defended this lens before, and you know what? I still like it. It's a great and inexpensive lens for casual picture taking on the *istD. Here's a shot from the zoo that I snapped a couple of weeks ago:

Here's a 100% crop:

Yes, there's better long glass available, but not for less than a hundred bucks, this lens is a star.

Lots of fun.

BTW, the lens is at 200mm, f8 @ 1/1500, ISO 400. Handheld of course.
