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.

Product Description

 
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.

Canon EF-S 17-55mm f2.8 IS USM - A Whole Different Kind of Animal

by   soupcraze ,  Jul 12, 2008
Pros: Amazing Image Quality; Amazing Versatility; Very Good Build Quality; Image Stabilization
Cons: Not L-Build Quality; Can't Use Onboard Flash; Not Compatible with Full-Frame Bodies; Dust Issues?; Heavy
The Bottom Line: It may not have the red ring, but it sure has everything else you could ever want!
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 Canon ...

Delivers on what it has advertized

by   gvfarns ,  May 26, 2009
Pros: Good build quality, optics, IS. EXCELLENT USM focus mechanism. Very useful focal lenth and aperature.
Cons: heavy, easy to get fingerprints on, pricey
The Bottom Line: Negligible cons, impressive pros. Lives up to expectations. I can find no fault here at all.
Review: Like so many people, I bought this to replace my kit lens. In my case that's the 18-55mm IS associated with the XSI. The main issue I had with that lens was the variable (and small) aperature.  I wanted constant 2.8 without sacrificing zoom or IS. ...
