The Canon EF 28-105mm standard zoom lens retains the optical capability of Canon's previous EF 28-105mm USM lens but with a refined exterior design. The lens is distinguished by a ring-type ultra-sonic monitor (USM) drive that provides silent, high-speed autofocusing, along with full-time manual focusing. The 1.6-foot close-focusing distance, meanwhile, lets you take great close-up portraits and nature shots. A good match for the Canon EOS A2/A2e or ELAN 7 series cameras with built-in flashes, the Canon EF 28-105mm lens is an excellent zoom lens for everyday use. The lens carries a one-year warranty.

The Canon EF 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 II USM Lens is a definite step up in quality from Canon's econo consumer zooms.
The Canon EF 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 II USM Lens should not be confused with the much-lower-end Canon EF 28-105mm f/4.0-5.6 USM Lens. These are much different lenses.
The Canon EF 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 II USM Lens features good build and decent-for-the-price optical quality.
As can be expected, the Canon EF 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 II USM Lens' cost is a notch above the econo zooms, but the notch is not a big one.
