...during sunny daylight you will not really see the advantage and IQ of the fantastic Canon 17-55mm 2.8 USM IS...but hey, you are from sunny southern California and I know for sure that there are so many photo opportunities in that part of the world to try this lens for better results...I would start by going to the Santa Monica pier(at night) and if I had some more time I would hop over to Catalina island for great landscape...I know, because i grew up in LA and I really miss the California coastline...greetings and may the light inspire your photographic dreams.
