But.. lets face it the 18-55 is not real sharp!! Can someone post a non-edited comparison of this lens against the Canon 50 f1.8 so I can compare sharpness!! I know a lot of us have the nifty fifty and know how sharp it is!!

You can take my 100-400 L away when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

I have sold the 17-40L now and use a 16-35, but I have the 28-75 and although it is a great lens (provided you get a good copy) I don't think its as good as the 17-40 is. In the persuit of total contentment, Canon does not help
