Re: What's wrong with the Canon 17-40?

I had a good 17-40mm lens ..... but the Sigma 12-42mm II lens is a fantastic lens! A lot better that any 17-40mm lenses I have had (4 of them). Even the version 1 12-24mm lens is better Lately after getting a 17mm TS-E lens, I considered the 16-35mm II lens. I found that normally it is good until 19-21mm & nothing told me it was really better in any way that my 17 TS-E lens or even my previous Sigma 12-24mm II lens. The 16-35mm is fasterm but from what I saw from my 12-24mm II lens, it's not that much better. .....I have tried 5 times to insert a sample & it won't work ..... I do this all the time Will try & rely with a sample ....oney & quality wise, you can't go wrong with the Sigma 12-24mm II lens

..... Still can't insert an image   I DO THIS ALL THE TIME  .... DP is lacking in this area lately

Cheers
