Canon EF 17-40mm F4 L USM

Very nice focus

I loved he price I got this lens for and the quality is very nice, I am happy to have got it from homeshop and the lens can focus to a very close object also.

A lens for all seasons

Great for landscapes, sunrises, and sunsets - particularly in combination with graduated neutral density filters to balance exposure of land and sky. Amazing for indoor room photos - a must for any Realtor. Superior for architects' pictures of structures.

Great light lens

Very sharp, found it to be much sharper and more accurate than my 24-70 2.8L, however when open wide at 17mm, there is some considerable distortion to watch out for especially with portraits. Photoshop's lens corrector tool should be able to help with that though.

Canon understands the underlying inimitability of each photographers creative vision, and thus proffers an exclusive camera lens to vivify their imagination. Each piece from the excellent array of Canon lenses is truly reflective of the signature know-how and craftsmanship associated with Canon.

The Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM lens is an inexpensive alternative to the 16-35mm f/2.8, but its edges are muddy at its widest angle. The Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM ($839.99 direct) is an ultra-wide to normal zoom lens that is compatible with Canon EOS SLR cameras. When used on a full-frame body, the lens provides an extremely wide 17mm field of view on the wide end with a 2.4x zoom factor that takes it to a normal 40mm field of view at the long end. It features a constant f/4 aperture and a silent focusing motor. The lens is a part of Canon's top-end L series of lenses—which are easily identified by the red band around the front element. It isn't as sharp as the Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM($1,745.00 at Amazon), and is prone to showing color fringing around highlight edges. But if you're looking for an ultra-wide zoom and you're on a budget, some work in Lightroom can make up for its shortcomings. The lens is short and squat at 3.8 by 3.3 inches (HD).
