OK thanks, going to go for the IS USM 28 - 135. Don't think I'm going to get it quick though as looking at prices Jessops quoting £375 and £15 to get it here tomorrow (non in store) but I can get it new through Ebay for £229.95. Thats too big a difference for the sake of having to wait

Thats too big a difference for the sake of having to wait Make sure that it is coming from the UK and not outside the EU. There have been a number of posts on one of the photography forums where posters have had to pay tax to customs to get their orders. They have also had to pay a charge to the carrier. That is an excellent price, and I would be a bit concerned that it is too good. The lowest price I have seen is £303 with Amazon.
Yeah, I've been looking for it on eBay.With stuff like that, I always make sure its in stock in the UK. Looks like the cheapest (with P&P) on there at the moment comes to £238.00.
OO, thanks for that.Can I ask, what is the f2.8 one?
The canon ones are priced at over £1000 http://www.jessops.com/online.store/products/12886/show.html and the other well over £2000 so that's when I win the lottery
