Just updated the photo gallery with the Hawaii pictures. Shot them with the new Canon EF-S 18-200mm lens. I would say an overall decent travel lens with a good zoom range. The image stabilizer works pretty well too as I was able to capture Bare Naked Ladies in action.

Congrats on your new lens! I checked pictures but did not see “bare naked ladies” in action.

Why did you opt for Canon’s lens and not Tamron’s recently announced 18-270mm F3.5-6.3Di II VC LD Aspherical (IF) Macro? Is it because you did not feel confident with Tamron’s own optical stabilization system? Just curious … I was thinking of getting one prior to my India visit.

Jay, ‘bare naked ladies’ is the Canadian rock band
… those night shots were done hand-held and the image stabilization worked great. I own a Tamron but have had some focus issues, so I decided to go with a Canon.
