Pros: I'm going to read, compact, easy to use

Cons: Minimum focus distance, sharpness on sensors high pixel density (8 mpx), very closed diaphragm, lack of stabilization

Opinion: What to say, only a fool would buy this lens expecting who knows what results. The pros are now just those to be light and compact, giving the possibility to carry a discreet zoom without burdening the weight and space of your shoulder strap. The sharpness is not the top, but with good light conditions it can still give you really nice shots. Anyway, age is already on my dear old 5d Mark II. I use optics above 80 mm almost only for extraordinary events or cases. The convenience of carrying such a small canvas is undoubted. The results, however, are mainly affected by the closure of the forced diaphragm, especially on the 200mm, at f/5.6 (flying over the fact that to achieve a fairly high sharpness you would have to close at least to f/8.0). As you might expect, the slowness of the goal, coupled with the lack of stabilization that forces the need for fast shots, necessarily leads to work at iso 1600 degrees as soon as the sun begins to set. In 2020 I would therefore suggest it only to those who shoot in analog or for the purposes of small prints (up to the A4)/web format, or to those who want to have an emergency canvas (now) inexpensive to keep in the bag without getting back pain. My experience with this lens goes back to my father, when he bought it in 1992 along with his eos 1000, until today with me and my 5D Mark II. In my opinion, he did well. Undoubtedly comfortable to use, thanks to the wide dial to control zoom and manual focus extremely "fluid". He also faced extreme situations in Indonesia, suffering only one damage: the plastic of the ring has turned white at times; nothing of that, taking into account that the poor fellow is not tropicalized!
