Re: Newbie Canon 7D Owner - What Lens?
I'd get the 17-55 IS. It's basically a 24-70 designed for crop cameras. The equivalent focal length is around 24-70. It has IS, and the 24-70 doesn't. It has the f/2.8 aperture, and the 24-105 doesn't. The 17-55 IS isn't an L, but it has L image quality and features (I've heard it lacks L build quality, but I've never used… -
Re: Newbie Canon 7D Owner - What Lens?
It really depends on your shooting style. Personally, I own both the 17-55 and the 24-105, and I find that I use the latter a lot more often than the former on my 50D. It's not that I don't like the quality of the 17-55 (on the contrary, it's a great lens), it's just that I use 55-104 a lot more often than 17-24. Might be… -

Not as silky smooth zoom ring as the 24 and the lens hood is not included as it is with the L lens (a bit of a bummer as it is quite close to L territory price-wise). I would… -

Re: Newbie Canon 7D Owner - What Lens?
The Canon EF-S 17-55mm, f2.8 IS USM is a wonderful standard zoom for a Canon 7D. While it's not an "L" lens in name, the optical qualities are very much "L" territory. It's an excellent lens to combine with the Sigma 10-20mm and Canon 70-200mm, f4L. I have a travel kit with just those lenses, and it's very enabling. If you… -
Newbie Canon 7D Owner - What Lens?
Hello Folks I just upgraded to a Canon 7D from my Rebel T1i.... I am using the kit lens from my Rebel T1i (18-55mm IS) as a walk-around lens on my 7D for the time being. In due course, I want to upgrade to a sharper lens with better color-rendition for general purpose use. What is a good upgrade option (sharper optics,…
