Reviews around sharpness (5.00 of 5)
-
The EF 24 2.8 IS USM is a significant improvement over the original EF 24 2.8: increased corner sharpness, silent and fast USM focus and image stabilization

Awesome contrast and sharpness with some vignetting that can easily be corrected.

Stopping down only slightly improves sharpness as it's already very good

I have the 17-55 f/2.8 zoom and love the sharpness, the f/2.8 speed and IS, but hate the huge size relative to the small Rebel camera
