Canon 17-40 is not so good in the corners. The Nikkor is almost certain to be better.

It may, but the MTF does not seem to imply so.

I don\'t understand the necessity for IS in the 17-40.

IS helps when one cannot use a Tripod

I\'ve never needed IS with my EF 20-35 f/3.5-4.5. IS in a lens with a focal length that short seems superfluous. When I use my 28-135, I barely notice the IS at the shorter focal lengths compared to the longer focal lengths.


I often thankful for the IS in my 17-55/2.8 IS. Here are two extreme examples.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.
