    Cheapest L series lens

    Not only is this lens a bargain to be grabbed around the secondhand markets, it’s also an ‘L’ lens worthy of its title. At 17mm I found the image crisp and sharp, even towards the edges, with only the slightest chromatic aberration, that is only noticeable when zoomed in tight. The internal zoom is always a good thing, helping it to be the lightest L lens in their range. Making the ring size at 77mm helps when it comes to fitting filter system as it’s the same size as they use on the 24-70 and 24-105. Along with my 24-70 and 70-200, I have found this lens to truly complete what photographers know as “The Magic Three”! Overall, for the size, weight & price, this is a lens that should be in everyone’s camera bag, a great lens for those wider shots, and worth every hard earned penny.

    Outstanding lens

    A professional wide a b gle lens. It wuite light too. It produces sharp images ev r n areas nit necessary focused on. It does distort verticals at the widest angle. These sre wasiky coorectsblevin Lightroom but once corrected the imsges needs croping to grt away from the blsnk efges this process produces. So if taking buildings that will distort take them from slightly further away so you have enough of the side image left after cropping. My top tip! The lens is excellent. Biught my secobd hand. There s r e plrnty around so oivk the newest. They are much better value than the 16-35L lens which is twice the price. I haven't noticed and issues by not having image stabilisation, its not a problem in normal use.

    My jugement, a bloody good value 'L' lens your money can buy

    Best grip lens with any 5D camera, soft around the edges wide open best at f5.6/f8, slow at F4 but the price makes up for that. Video - this lens does is not one of those tromboning things, zooming in internal so the lens weight and distrubation remains even. My jugement, a bloody good value 'L' lens your money can buy

    Canon EF 17-40mm Lens vs Canon 24-105mm Lens:

    I have had my Canon EF 24-105mm Lens for some time and the results have always been fantastic; however I have always felt I was lacking just that little bit of extra, especially for taking Landscapes and obtaining closer details and width of buildings. I had previously read the reviews about the Canon EF 17-40mm Lens and was confident it would give me what I wanted; it is only now, even after this very short period of use, that I can really appreciate what a class piece of equipment this Ultra Wide Angle Zoom is and the results beginning to produce for me; the images are extremely sharp and I believe it will give me that extra dimensionI am looking for in my photography; An truly excellent piece of equipment.

    wide angle zoom extraordinary

    absolutely delighted with the performance of this lens. Not too heavy or bulky although the lens hood looks a bit like a soup plate. It certainly makes my old 16-35mm look second rate. the speed of focussing on my canon 7D is excellent and feels a well balanced combination
