I was having my eyes on EF17-40mm f/4L USM and EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5USM but after research it dont have build in with IS. If i buy any lense that without build in IS does that mean I had to get myself a tripod because the picture will blurry?

You can usually get shutter speeds that will cancel camera shake. The general rule, I think, is: 1/focal length. So, for the 17-40 lens, at shutter speeds of 1/40 or faster, you don't need IS. And with the 10-22mm lens, shutter speeds of 1/22 (usually 1/25th) or faster and you don't need IS. Gear https://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=635450

Technically it just the FL you are shooting at, but if you at the 70 end of the 200, the big lens might cause more shake than if you were just using a 70mm prime. So I'd err on the faster shutter speed side when you can. Taylor

So on a 1.6 crop (i assume you are shooting crop since the 10-22 is being considered) . On my 40D I aim for a 1/2 x focal lenght, so with my 85mm I go for 1/160, with the 24mm I can shoot 1/50 etc. If I lean against a door or something, I can go slower. Try shooting bursts, 2. or 3. shot are often sharper for me. YMMV.

It's much harder to jerk around a 70-200 than it is a 50/1.8. Anyone know anything anywhere anymore?
