a few recent shots:

this was shot at ƒ2.8/17mm @800 iso - and no post processing. color, contrast and sharpness are all done on-camera - this is straight from the camera (other than pulled into photoshop for a re-size)

this was approx ƒ22 @100iso - can't remember the shutter speed...shot raw and processed in photoshop (curves mostly, maybe a few other tweaks)

Are action shots possible with this lens? Because this lens looks promising from the pictures. :D

Yeah, if you can get close to the action... What do you want to shoot?

I'm am into pet photography. What I plan is to have this lens for a while, then upgrade to a Canon 24-70.

Eh, if you're taking pics of dogs running around I'd rather have more zoom... Canon 70-200 would be ideal, but I use a cheap Sigma 70-300 that can get good results if there's enough light...

Also the Canon "Nifty 250" is pretty cheap and popular - https://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthre​ad.php?t=459569

dogs running around and trying to shoot short isn't really a good plan, something with reach would be better..

this is the most action my 17-50 has seen..
