I got tired of waiting for Canon to recognize this lens's excellence so I did it myself.

Here's some pix from Canon's best lens:

I really don't care enough to try and impress anyone with red pinstripe on my 17-55IS. If the red pin stripe makes you feel "pro", more power to you. ;) The 17-55IS is an awesome little lens.

What'd you use for the stripe?

When did voluptuous become voluminous?

One thing I discovered quickly about this forum - people sure aren't afraid to say what's on their minds bw!

I was looking at this saying, hey, since when did Canon release this in L glass?

I can't believe that no one thinks this is funny.

I guess I have a strange sense of humor. The original post had no comedic value for me, but this post had me chuckling pretty good. :lol:
