Thanks for the helo guys. Pulled a complete 180 there! The 17-40 is a great lens and I suspect the 580 is an awesome flash (I have the 430), this should be a great combo for you. Enjoy.

Based on that decision I take it you'll mainly be shooting rail sessions? (If the reasoning to the purchase is still for snowboarding shots) -JP

At 1/500th or better IS is useless. i'm not sure i agree with your last statement but there would no shortage of light for sure. http://instagram.com/edraderphotography/
