Can anybody point me in the direction of a mint (new) condition Canon 28-115mm IS USM lens? My current Canon 17-85mm IS USM lens is great but not enough zoom power.

Thanks,

    Not sure which lens you mean?

    While Canon does make a 28-105mm USM, it is not IS nor is it particularly great in any respect.

    Perhaps you mean the EF 28-135mm, f3.5-f5.6, USM IS, or the EF 24-105mm, f4L IS?

    Of these two, the latter (24-105mm) is much better quality, and more costly.

    Thanks for the correction.
    can anybody suggest a good lens with image stabilization in this range?

    Good lens. I changed the thread header/title to reflect what you intended to ask for.

    Give it a couple of days to get suggestions.

    Are you still looking to buy a Canon EF 28-135 f/3.5-5.6 IS USM lens?

    I have one I no longer use (replaced with 24-105 f/4L and the 70-300 DO), which I'll sell. It's in good condition, but I've had it for five years, so I can't say it's "mint", but functionally I believe it's perfect. PM me if you're interested.
