Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM Lens

Consumer Rating: Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM Lens Reviews and Ratings - Rating 4.5/5   See 9 reviews  | Write a review at Shopping.com
Information: Product details
Price Range: £779.00 - £799.00 at 2 stores
Manufacturer: Canon
To meet user demands for a fast EF-S zoom lens, Canon has specially designed a new lens with a large aperture of f/2.8 for select Canon Digital SLR cameras.* The large circular aperture produces a shallow depth-of-field, creating background blur that draws attention to the photographic subject. The lens construction includes UD and aspherical elements, which deliver impressive image quality throughout the entire zoom range. Image Stabilizer lens groups shift to compensate for camera movement so that the image appears steady on the image plane, ensuring clear, crisp images, even in dim light. With a Ring-type USM, inner focusing and new AF algorithms, this lens achieves autofocus quickly and quietly, and with full-time mechanical manual focusing, manually adjusting the focus is possible even in AF mode.

Expensive non-L lens

by  marketv ,  Jun 3, 2007
7 out of 7 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Very Sharp, Super fast AF speed, IS feature
Cons: Expensive! Lack of the L lens bokeh quality, built quality and packaging...only a EF-S lens.
The Bottom Line: Yes if you plan to stick with 1.6X crop bodies from Canon. It's a very reliable sharp lens ...and can give you good results in most situations.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: It carries a L lens price tag and it is made of some L lens elements. Very sharp across the f/stops even wide open at 2.8... Comparable to 24-70/2.8L and 17-40/4L sharpness at the corresponding widest apreture. Focus is very fast and zoom ring is...

This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: An EF-S lens. $1,000. I told myself repeatedly that I would not buy it. I mean come on, a non-L series lens for this much money? You have got to be kidding me? After killing myself over the decision between the Canon EF 24-105mm F4L IS USM and the...
