Anyone have any luck with the 18-135 IS lens for video? Is it tolerable?
There seems to be a shortage of high quality EFS / IS lenses to choose from.
Use will be only for outdoor wedding video work.
I have access to L series lenses other times from my other still cameras...just not when I'm shooting a wedding. I would prefer not to have to buy another expensive zoom lens only for weddings.
Thanks, Craig

its not a fast lens -- so its best use is outdoors. I think it is fantastic at 135 -- particularly for portraits or up close shooting ...

I like the lens very much - outdoors
