New pics of tennis pros with 17-55 2.8
3 months ago

I recently started a thread about 17-55 vs 50mm 1.8 for shooting action shots of tennis pros indoors.

I've used nifty fifty in the past with good results. This time decided to try 17-55 at 2.8 rather than 50mm at 2.0.

The results were better, probably due to faster and better AF on 17-55. Color, contrast and sharpness seem to be improved as well. I'm loving this spectacular lens, which seems to be great for so many photographic situations. I can't seem to take it off my 60D.

Here's a few examples, shot at f2.8,1/640, 1600 ISO with 17-55. These are compressed files, I cannot load originals.
