Some of the pics are just shockingly sharp...can it be out camera like that? The 5D does seem to need much less sharpening than any cam I have owned (D30, XT, 20D, 40D) Eric

Im flying out to Germany soon for some nightclub work and am thinking about picking up a new lens asap if I can. Looking for something at 17mm. So what I would like to know or see a comparison shot of something at 17mm and 24mm. Local store does not have anything in the 17mm range in stock.  17-40 f4 .... perfect companion to the 24-205 i hear.... also, form pics i have seen... 24mm on ff is wide... the 17mm on ff is hard-on enducingly wide! http://www.mzivtins.co.uk

May 27, 2008 04:59 | #1211 Ah I don't know if I have any comparison shots of the same scene (i.e. pics that would show the difference well), but let me tell you - 24 is a wide angle. 17 is RIDICULOUSLY wide. It's a massive, massive difference, as 17 lingers toward the wide end of the ultra-wide range, whereas 24 is more of a traditional wide angle. Perry | www.perryge.com

Here's a quick couple of the "Disgrace" in Edinburgh, first one is at 17mm, second at 24mm:   Taken from different angles/positions (but from about the same distance), but shows the field of view and perspective differences, I think. 17mm is w-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-d-e on a FF!

Think I will pick up the Sigma 17-35 for Germany and then transfer that to my crop body later as the walkabout lens and pick up the Canon 17-40L for the 5D. I know how badly it craves for high end glass. Everyday, a programmer finds a way of creating an idiotproof program. Everyday, the universe spits out another idiot.....So far, the universe if winning
