  • Fast, consistent, accurate autofocus, Generous f/2.8 maximum aperture
  • Big for an APS-C lens, No weather seals
  • The Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS gives APS-C shooters a taste of the premium lifestyle, with a smooth constant f/2.8 aperture and a generously wide zoom range for a standard lens. It's getting a little old in the tooth and does show its age in a few ways...

  • Big. Expensive. Soft at 55mm
  • If you're looking to upgrade your 18-55mm kit lens, the Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM is a good, but expensive, way to go....

  • Abstract:  The Canon EF-S 17-55/2.8 IS USM and Sigma 17-50/2.8 EX DC OS HSM are both fast wide-to-short telephoto zooms designed for use on crop sensor digital cameras. On such cameras they approximate the same angle of view that you'd get from something like...
