      One of canon's best lenses

    The title that ebay gave this is a bit wrong, because this lens is also for the XT, Rebel, and 30D (as of this writing). Basically anything that fits the EF-S mount.

    I just love, love, love this lens. I only wish they made this in EF mount, because that is where I'm heading body wise. Currently this has the closest focusing distance of the canon line-up. This lens is SUPER sharp. I use this lens for macro work on bugs and flowers. I'll also use it to do some aquarium work, since I can basically put the lens to the glass and remove any sort of reflections and distortion. The reason why I list that as a benefit is because of the focusing distance. If I were to have another lens, I would have to back away from the glass for the lens to focus on the subject. USM is very fast and accurate. I will say that when doing macro work, you need a steady hand, bump up the speed, or use a tripod. You can definitely see your hand shake in the viewfinder. It also has very nice bokeh.

    Final verdict: This lens is one of my favorite, and is worth the money.

    I'm glad I went with this lens. After investigating many options I felt a lens that was optimized by the manufacturer to work with their digital camera would be the best bet. The price was also a factor and for under $400 this lens is worth every penny. I love to take macro photos of flowers so contrast, color and above all sharpness is my main concern. This lens did not let me down in any of these areas. Even wide open at a reasonably fast f/2.8 the frame looks sharp from edge to edge. Team this lens up with a quality macro ring flash and you will have a killer combo that will make you the envy of all your photo buddies. For a 1:1 magnifaction ratio, great build quality and pin sharp pictures this lens is a winner.
