Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS
Available Today
This lens provides a very wide f/2.8 aperture, three-stop third-generation image stabilizer, and a zoom range that makes it an ideal walkaround or everyday lens. It’s received universally excellent reviews for sharpness and usability; it is an L-quality lens, both in build and sharpness.
We continue to add copies as the demand seems to be growing almost weekly. Several people have rented it for a second time now, so obviously they like it.
Only Works With: Crop sensor cameras (T3i, 7D, etc…)
