So any regrets guys? Do you ever wish u still had the 17-40?

Not in the slightest. This lens was a major part of resurrecting my interest in photography. If I could only own one EOS-compatible lens, this one would be it.

I sold my 16-35 II without any regrets as soon I got the ts-e 24 and never looked back.

Hmmm well it looks like you may have convinced me, will sell my 17-40 and 24-105 and still be well short of required funds...kinda doesn't make it seem worth it when u look at it like that lol

This post making me to think that i am really lucky, i didn't need to sacrifice any of my lenses to get this lens, in fact i sacrificed one lens to have money and i just add little more to afford this lens, the lens i sacrificed was 70-200 2.8IS mk1, but i can't think it is a sacrifice because i bought 70-200 mk2.

I hope to use this lens so i can feel it is worthy, i have many lenses now and doing less photography than before, i have to return back so i can still shoot amazing photos.

That was my case as well, and like you, I didn't take the decision lightly. Godspeed to you sir!

By the look of your gear list I don't think you have to sacrifice much in life

At first no. After a while I realised I wanted an ultra wide angle that I could take hiking (17-40 was my goto hiking lens previously) as setting up the tripod (sometimes I don't take one either) and shifting to get a wide FOV wasn't always ideal so ended up down the road of the Rokinon 14. However if im out taking landscape shots during the day I will use the 24 TSE 99.9% of the time. For night shots (not stars) I would use the TS-E or the 14 equally depending on what im doing and for night star shots its the 14mm

There were no regrets once I bought the 17 TS and 24 TS II.

^that would have been my first choice but funds didn't allow it

And now your gear list beating and blowing away my gear list, i feel so poor.

So love mine. Can't wait to get the 17mm next!

I ordered one over the holidays and just got back. I'm about to take it out of the box and start using it....I can hardly wait!

Mine arrived late this afternoon. From the couple of quick snaps I've taken it looks really sharp (on a par with my 85mm f/1.2). Hoping to get some trial shots with it tomorrow if the weather is reasonable.

Greetings,
Interior shot of a show house. Lateral shift pano shots. Love the upright of the walls along the sides of the image. Enjoy...
