Sorry Iave to disagree.

I started off with the kit lens and aps-c cameras before I went to full frame.

The 17-55 f2.8 is an amazing lens, my most favourite lens when I had it. The difference in image quality, focusing speed and bokeh was like having a new camera.

If you can't see the difference I would question your technique or equipment.

Apologies if my comment above sounds abit harsh, but I thought the lens was amazing with my 350D, 40D and 7D.

I had one for a bit and wasn't impressed. It worked better on my 12mpxl T3 than it did on my 80D.
