Value for Money

Currently, this lens is available for around £200, but the price has continued to drop steadily from launch. Most people who end up owning this lens will pick it up as part of a kit, so wouldn't dream of paying that much for this lens on its own, especially as the previous USM version can be picked up for around £85.
