Carbon Canyon Regional Park - Redwood Grove Trail (15-85mm is an AMAZING lens!)
3

I recently upgraded my 18-55mm kit lens to a used 15-85mm that I got from Ebay. Best decision since I purchased my T3i back in 2011 and I regret not getting it way sooner. Here are some JPEG photos I took today straight from my camera during my hike.

Terrific shots. The light is beautiful and the color rendering is is, too.

The EF-S 15-85mm lens is the one I use the most by far.  It has great IQ, has very fast AF and the zoom range is excellent being the equivalent of 24-136mm.  This lens basically lives on my SL2 and is the combination I reach for probably 85% of the time.  I have FF cameras but the weight of the camera and lenses are just more than I want to carry around these days for long periods of time.  The 15-85mm on the SL2 makes for a very portable and capable combination.

I'm a big fan of this lens too. I've had mine for years and really appreciate the extra 3mm on the wide end compared to the 18-55.
