Hi Gang............. A while back I brought up the fact that my Sigma 28-105mm f2.8-4 lens, after using it a year, decided to stop talking to my Canon 10D and I kept getting an error 99 code. So I bought a new Canon USM 28-105mm f3.5-4.5 lens. This lens worked fine but I wasn't real wild about how "cheaply" it seemed to be constructed. The Sigma actually seemed to feel better made. Well yesterday while going down my back stairs I slipped and fell a few steps and aside from getting a bit bruised I was fine but the afore mentioned Canon lens broke. Now I know I can get this repaired..... But I wouldn't mind getting another lens. I am shying away from buying another third party lens and having it eventually stop talking to the camera body. But people must be buying them and having them work ok...... I am open to suggestions. I am leaning towards buying a used 28-135mm f3.5-5-6 Canon zoom with the image stabilization. Can any one tell me if this is built any better than my Canon previous lens? (by the way I don't expect any lens to survive a fall down the stairs) Thanks Russ R.E.
