I'm still using a Canon Powershot G3, and wondered what your opinions would be if I bought a lens like this? It doesn't have any brand-name listed, but I wondered if it would do its job well enough to be worthwhile or if there's a higher chance it'll be pretty awful...

I'm tempted to upgrade to a Canon EOS 400D this weekend (there's a £50 cashback offer that runs out on Saturday) but I'm not sure whether to go DSLR or upgrade to a new prosumer, so I'll probably just stick with my G3 for a while longer. :-)

P.S. I know there will probably be import taxes importing the above to the UK, but it should still be cheaper than buying something similar over here...
