Wide for party shots and it has enough reach for 90% of the shots needed. You can geta deal on the New Tamron XR DiII LD (won the new Tipa 2005 award) or get a Canon version.

IS is great to have as well, but if your steady, you can get away with having no IS under 200
18-200? there's no good lense for the canons with this range, not even the Tamron
infact there's none that is good at this range
even the 18-200 VR from nikkor is overrated. distortion, bad bokeh, and a slow zoom. It happens to be not that sharp as well.
