on the reliability issue I have a canon 17-85mm kit lens that is 18 months old the zoom locked up no play either way ..when I contacted Canon dealership they informed me "oh yes its a common fault with these " at 18 months old!!!! I have a Miranda 100-300 zoom so not exactly cutting edge and it is 25 years old no problems whatsoever it did cost £120 all that time ago so maybe it is related somehow ..ie digital kit is cheaper in relation to our earnings now as to then ....maybe
