At nearly a thousand dollars one would expect decent dust and moisture sealing. If you have this Lens and its over 5 years old , SELL IT OR TRADE IT IN!
This WAS a amazing lens for the first half of the time I owned it

My video review

Canon EFS 17-55 f2.8 IS Lens ( 9 YEAR REVIEW )

i believe it was around 2007 when i played with a friends EF-s 17-55 2.8 lens, the iq was not too bad but the construction compared to a "L" lens was quite poor. besides, there was no "L" coated lenses magic, such as micro contrast, special color saturation and overall quality. the joints had movements and dust could go in. i was turned off by it completely. that was the reason why i never purchased a EF-s or 3rd party lens, with exception of zeiss lenses.
