I bought my first digital SLR that's already a bunch of years ... it was
Canon EOS 450D.
Yes, yes, I was that broke the story in Paris in 2011. This objective is to me of aillor broke in the lot ... I was lucky enough to find one for cheap occasion.
So ... this goal, we must not be fooled, this is a basic objective sooooo. It is enough for a beginner but for an amateur with a little experience, it is already barely enough.
I personally think that this objective is to learn the basics, discover the device without breaking the bank too. Stabilization works well, the zoom ring is large, the minimum
distance of focus is interesting from the closeness that you may have. The autofocus is a little slow, but this goal is clearly not for the sports photo, or fast speed. It is
however his job with a focus always correct.
However with regard to the development ... if you want to make the manual is already significantly worse already becaufe the focus ring is very small but also because it is not
very accurate. This is quite a hassle to shoot or to make a quick focus manually.
Regarding construction, so aside from the focus ring is too small. The goal is not tropicalized and has a tendency to take the dust and sand between the ring focus and the zoom.
This is what makes my goal aillor broke down for autofocus ... damage, it was helping. All-plastic construction is a little flimsy, but it is surprisingly not. However it is not
very heavy, and that's good when you already have several kg of congestion with the rest of the material.
It's a bit what I have to say about this objective, it is supplied in a pack will be helpful for beginners to learn the basics, but I do not recommend to buy ''separately'',
as well take a 24-105mm F/4L if you have the money, if the 18-55mm F/2.8.
