First, the difference between 17 & 24 is ENORMOUS!! enough said! I am a huge fan of the 15-85 IS USM. It has great IQ that is almost on par with my 70-200f/4 IS L. Excellent IS & fast whisper quiet AF. The FL fits in great with a 70-XXX lens. If you have not yet bought a long zoom, have a look at the Tamron 70-300VC. An outstanding lens at a great price. I believe your US sellers have some money back deals on, which means it is going for $350 after rebate. Well worth a look.

Thanks for the quick reply!  I was hoping to hear there would be a 'huge difference' because I know I won't be happy with 24 on the wide end!  Regarding the 15-85 you mentioned, the 6D doesn't accept EF-S lenses, so that isn't an option.
