Another perspective

I have no doubt the IS version brings a small improvement in image quality and obviously IS; I got the non IS version as it allowed me to get another lens I coveted, the 10-22 for the price difference. So it depends not just on your budget but how much you're wiling to pay for a lens. Where I live taking even the non IS version involves some serious security considerations.
