+ Excellent reach and image quality at reasonable price. I often prefer images from this lens to those taken with 16-80 Zeiss (within the overlapping 70-80 focal length).
The SSM focusing is a joy to use, silent in operation, and you can always fine-tune focus by just turning the focusing ring.

- Build quality is even better than that of 16-80 Zeiss (and obviously that of the kit lenses), but this lens is not full metal construction (which means much nicer weight). But it also means that it cannot be compared to something like the beercan.
