Got a new lens today. This is one of the first images from it. A very over photographed subject, but just wanted to get some test images. All in all, a pretty nice piece of glass. It's a Canon EF-S 17-55mm f2.8. I hemmed and hawed about which lens I wanted to get as Canon makes a few in this wide to mid zoom range, but when I read the specs of all of them, this one had the best resolution, contrast, and brightness (f-stop). If you have the means and a Canon DSLR with an APS sized sensor... I highly recommend. I'm sure there will be more images from this lens in the very near future. Here are a few great websites for lens reviews for Canon.

Great choice! That is one nice lens. In addition to the sites you mentioned, I find the lens review listings at canon-reviews.com to be very helpful when researching camera equipment.
