Mark, I have had this lens for over a year and it has never exhibited lens creep. This lens is also a two touch design. The focus ring rotates as usual, while the zoom ring is push pull. Keep in mind that the front element rotates while focusing. This is a problem for some, but not for me. This is my workhorse lens that is on the body 75% of the time. It is sharp edge to edge and merits the moniker "pro zoom". I find the range to be quite adequate, as I dont expect it to be all things to all subjects. The price is worth it. Hope this helps.

I was wondering if I should be at all concerned with lens creep? This would be a big purchase for me, so I'd like to find out as much info about this lens as possible before I buy it. I'd hate to put that much money into a lens and have it move on me. Thanks. >>>>>>>>>>
