It’s a two for one.

Image samples from the new Canon EOS 50D paired with the Canon EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS can be see here. As with the DPR 50D samples the other day, I’m pretty sure these are with pre-production firmware so keep that in mind…

I think the EF-S 18-200mm is doing an admirable job here, but like most lenses of this type you have some softness at the corners, and some Canon shooters might be apt to pass it over anyway based on the lack of USM. Lens selection on a budget always comes down to compromises, and you’ll have to pick which ones matter the most, but if convienience and versatility top your list, this might be the lens for you.

I’ll just add, these samples continue an annoying pattern with the recent spat of 50D samples of few to no high ISO shots.

See the samples here…
