Awesome lense for APS-C
Best lens for canon apsc DSLR. Great image quality and static aspeture f/2.8 makes low light shooting easy.

Dont get me wrong, this is optically fantastic, its like having a bag full of primes on your camera. My list of cons is long and I'm being very picky with them - but the zoom creep is the most troublesome for me.
Pros:
- Stunning image quality (wide angle distortion excepted), f2.8, IS, super fast focussing, good size and weight
- DPP lens profile to correct distortion
Cons:
- For the very high "L" level pricing it should have better build quality
- not suffer chronic zoom creep
- not have so much distortion at 17mm
- and it should be weather sealed

Great Lens for the price
This lens was a replacement for my kit lens. I'm more than happy with the lower apeture, and achieving a great balance for both indooor and out.
Pros:
- The lens is light, quiet, and is sharp
- Very good lens for the price
Cons:
- Auto focus is a bit slow

Superb Lens
I've had this lens for 5 months now and I find it to be outstanding. My photo's are extremely sharp, vibrant and colorful. The focusing is fast, though not as quiet as an STM and works beautifully. I use this lens with the 70D and recently went on a trip to Jamaica ..

The image quality is par excellence! I am using this on my Canon T2i and it produces stupendous results. This lens is perfect for indoor low-light, portraits and even outdoor photography. I do notice that the IS makes a low humming sound while it is 'working'.
Pros:
- Sharp
- IS
- 2.8 fixed aperture
- wide angle
Cons:
- very expensive for ef-s lens

so far so good,caught a 2 year old in action and low light!
old f3.5-5.6 wasn't fast enough to catch a 2 year old... this seems to have done the trick in low light! haven't really tried it out apart from that due to work and foul weather! so far so good! replacing kit lens.
Pros:
- Sharp Focus
- Strong Construction

Fantastic lens IF you get a good one.
Had to send it back as the focusing was too un reliable. The IQ is really good, and the lens is worth the moment, but only if you get a good copy. Ive had 3 bad ones.
