That'll be tough to slot in between the 16-35 and 24-70...too much overlap I would think. However, they could slap IS on it to justify it's existance, but I imagine that would ruin sales for the other two as well.

I think canon is going to seperate the EFS mount with all the new EFS "high quality S-UD lenses"

so far they have super wide to wide normal lenses. So its only fair to say that there should be a telephoto zoom lens in EFS mount that has the same S-UD glass as the L series.

The 17-55 is an EF-S for 20Ds and 30Ds. Price I think??? is about $1100. $700 would be better.
Available maybe in April. The full frame guys will use the 16-35 and the Cropped sensors will utilitze this new lens.

The 85mm is the Mark II 1.2L coming in April for about $2100.
