You wanna buy back the same lens? Just shout in the Buy & Sell forum and I bet there will be tons coming your way...
 I thought I saw some 2nd hand ones at The Camera Workshop (TCW) too... Or else invest some money getting a USM version of the same range and aperture. |

I think you should provide us with a budget.
Don't go for anything more than 28-200mm

My vote is for the Tamron 24-135SP, much cheaper than the EF 28-135 and I feel the optics are sharper and offers more contrast.

That's my OWN opinion so don't flame me. You try it out for yourself and figure it out. I'm just providing the thread starter with a pointer to explore, I'm not insisting he should go out and buy one right away. |
