This is not an IS Canon lens, it doesn't have Image Stabilisation. Nothing wrong with that, it is what it says it is, but you need to be aware as a buyer. If like me you're an enthusiastic amateur photographer and that fact escaped you (as it did me, Doh!) you're better off improving your chances of a good picture with an IS kit lens and paying a little bit more. I've bought an IS version since, it makes a profound difference, I'll trade this one in at some point. It arrived in a plain box, none of the usual instructions, bumf and guarantee you get with a new Canon lens normally (it did say plain box in the description). It did have lens caps and looked brand new.
