Title: Was great till it broke
Review: I purchased this lens 6 months ago. I started out being every thing I hoped for. I was light weight and takes decent pictures. I know better than to compare this with some of my 2.8 lenses, but, this lens held its own. The pictures were acceptable and it was easy to use. That was until it stopped working. Last week I went to Florida and was taking some pictures when the zoom stopped working, fortunately I had other lenses with me. First it would no longer go down to 18mm and then stopped going up to 70mm. That left me with a 28-50mm lens. Even at those ranges the zoom was very stiff. As I said I wasn't expecting a great lens, but, I was expecting it to last more than 6 months. I am extremely disappointed.
