My wife wants my Tamron 17-50mm to be paired with her 400D which i gave it to her. A good reason for me to buy 17-40mm f/4L. tongue.gif

LOL, I did not cover it because I see the higher megapixel to be more advantage than disadvantage. Why i need to worry about microshake when I have to blur my image

he can continue to laugh, while i will focus on how to take better images at lower shutter speed.

p/s: I actually spend 30 mins writting the explanation, but decided not to post it. Just that i stand by my words, I don't think it's a problem. You can worry all your life struggling to get more shutter speed.

sorry to barge in the debates on the high megapixel vs sharp images vs shutter speed thingy. sounds quite lame to me. tongue.gif laugh.gif

anyway, this pic took using UWA or fish eye a? nice distortion there.

Mebe he bought 5D2 leh? With 5D2 the 17-40L is more than enough. Bokeh at f4 oredi can pengsan, speed can bump iso like hell.

hmm. IQ much better? certainly much better than the tamron. but by how much?it is justifiable? hmm.gif i've only used the 17-40 once of twice so can't really say. need ask those who used both lens regularly.

then again, if you always shoot f4 and above, then its worth considering la. like what sniper said, you will be losing 1 stop of light leh, and with 550D, your bokeh might not be as nice if you had a f2.8 lens. having said that, if you are not a bokeh freak, then f4 can pretty much do the job too.

anyway...its your money the end of the day. laugh.gif
