Agreed.  I have this lens and it lives on my SL1.  Nice general purpose setup. I have a 6D and also some m43 cameras.  I recently bought the Olympus m43 12-40/2.8 Pro zoom for my m43 setup.  I tested that lens against my 18-135 and was very surprised that there was no discernable difference.  The Oly zoom constantly receives rave reviews so that is quite a feat.  I have had a couple of different superzooms for my m43 setup and the 18-135 gives better results.  Somewhat of a hidden gem in the Canon system.  It appears that the newer nano-USM is not as good optically.  I'm holding onto mine.
