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.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

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.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

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.

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.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

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 combinationVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Excellent lens for landscape and street!
The Canon 17-40 lens is what you expect for an L lens - weather proof, very sharp, excellent contrast and colour rendition, and also surprisingly light. I am used to the Canon 70-200 2.8 L lens, so when using the 17-40 it feels so light but also comfortable for long shooting periods. Recommended for landscapes definitely but also street photography, you can get some very interesting shots and is a lot of fun - plus due to the size it's also discrete. I have noticed vignetting and softness in the corners but considering the price and the overall quality the lens makes up for it - for optimum perfectionists the Canon 16-35 L lens would be worth a look, but is a lot more expensive. The17-40 lens is worth every penny and is a great choice for many photographers.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great lens!
Very good lens. Came in original box and was well packaged. Lens does show some barrel distortion on landscape work but understandable given the range. Bought it to match my other Canon lenses and it's great as it also uses the same 77mm filter thread. Very happy with my purchase.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A great value alternative to Native Sony Glass
These lenses make a great cost effective alternative to native Sony glass on Sony A7 cameras when used with an appropriate adaptor. As a secondhand lens with a new Commlite adaptor, you can be up and shooting for less than £350 compared to say £650 - £750 for the similar Sony Vario-Tessar T* FE 16-35mm f/4 ZA OSS. This is a huge cost saving and there are next no downsides, especially if you are doing straight photography plus its a little tighter at the tele end which I find useful.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Older model but exceptionally sharp lens
This is an older model to the newer 16-35 lens. But I'm sure it is sharper and cleaner image, so great value for money. It does not have image stabilization however this does not matter when taking Landor shots as the shutter speed is fast enough. The higher f4 is also not a problem as you will usually be writing at f8 and above.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A lightweight lens for those wide angle shots
A useful lens to have in your bag and not to heavy to carry all day, f11 seems to give the best results with both the D5 MK II & MK IV body's, any distortion can easily be removed post production in Light-room, colours are true to life. the build is of the usual canon high quality you would expect from a canon L lens overall a very good all round performerVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
