Sigma 17-35.......2007-12-27
Outstanding lens, Sharp all the through. I was concrened about mid level reviews but chose to get this lens anyway. buy it at this price it's a no brainer.
Great lens.......2007-12-21
I should have had a lens like this a long time ago. It's amazing what you can capture with a wide-angle lens and the effect it portrays.
It's Amazing!!!.......2007-01-09
I have a Canon 5D and this lens works perfect with it. It's quickly, not so heavy and you can do the best indoor and landscape pictures of your life. It's also good for creative pictures. I'm really happy!!!
You get what you pay for.......2006-02-14
This lens in just ok. It is a little soft at the edges and at wide apertures. After using it for a few months I sold it to buy a Canon 17-40 f/4 L. The Canon is a stop slower and a couple hundred dollars more, but the images are sharper and it is weather sealed. I would invest the extra money in a Canon lens.
One of the best Sigma lenses.......2005-06-30
Quite a sharp lens, did some very good shots until I replaced it with Canon 16-35 f/2.8. Overall I was very happy with it, the tiny little problem it is a very fragile lens (like most of Sigma lenses), and it needs a very special treatment, also the size of the filter is very big, makes it very expensive to buy 82mm C-PL for example.

Removing the included hood improves this.

Quick correction.......2007-12-06
I am getting this as a Christmas present and have not yet used it so I cannot comment on the overall quality of this lense but I want to mention something that I definitely have learned: the description says that this lense uses 82mm filters. This is WRONG and I have two filters to return to attest to this. The lense uses 77mm filters so please take note of this if you, like I did, try to order filters before getting the lense home and seeing the big 77mm on the side of it.
