Review : The Canon EF-S 17-40mm f/4L USM is an ultra wide-angle zoom lens built for both film and digital SLRs. This is built to be a more affordable alternative to higher grade lenses like the Canon EF-S 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM. Three Aspherical lens elements and a Super Ultra-low Dispersion glass element combine to provide high quality images, and a optical coatings have been applied to aid when the lens is used with digital cameras. The lens can focus as close as 11 inches, and uses a fast and silent autofocus in addition to a ring-type manual focus. Filters can be screwed into the 77mm fitting, or up to three gel filters can be placed in a holder in the rear. The construction is weather-resistant to allow the lens to be used in a maximum number of settings. Features Ultra wide-angle zoom lens Weather-resistant Works with film and digital SLRs Optical coatings ... PROS: (1) full frame (2) moderately priced - a great upgrade from a kit lens on a crop sensor camera (3) lightweight - the lightest L series lens to date (4) L series - Canons highest quality glass, professional build and optics (5) fully weather sealed body (requires a filter) ... CONS: (1) weaker fixed aperture of F/4, not as good as the professional F/2.8 standard that allows for better performance in low light, better DOF seperation (2) no image stabilization

Camera Labs - Canon EF 17-40mm with 5D review

by cameralabs.com UK Monday, January 01, 0001
Review : The EF 17-40mm f/4.0L is one of the best lenses in Canon's range. It brings you a taste of the truly exotic with ultra-wide coverage, while boasting 'L' quality all at a surprisingly affordable price. Sure it ain't exactly cheap, but it's considerably more affordable than the EF 24-105mm f/4.0L and almost half the price of the EF 16-35mm f/2.8L. On the downside, our samples were quite soft in the corners when zoomed-into 40mm and focused at infinity, and the combination of full-frame digital with wide angle means you'll have to put up with quite significant light fall-off in the corners. There's also the annoying fact many EOS 5D owners wanting a practical two lens kit could end up with a gap between 40mm and 70mm. Find out more in our full review with test results - and for a demonstration of this lens in action, check out our video tour. Also see our full review of the EF 17-40mm with the 400D / Rebel XTi, where we've compared it against other general purpose Canon zoom lenses.
