    EF 16-35 f/2.8L V EF 17-40 f/4.0L

    Came across this link that might be helpful to anyone tossing up between the Canon 16-35 & 17-40 lenses http://www.luminous-landscape.com/re...on-17-40.shtml.

    I was tossing up before I bought my 17-40 and in the end it was mostly landscape value I was looking for where there was a likelihood of longer exposures over a tripod. Value for money and moderate use of a smaller f/stop toward the wider end helped sway my decision.

    Hope others find this useful

    Wonderbar! I have been researching these two lenses myself & decided I would go with the 17-40mm L as you have, more bang for your buck

    Please note that the 16-36L is the MkI version, not the MkII.
