Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS Lens (crop)

Our rental Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS Lens (crop) was once the most popular lens in digital photography. Why? Once upon a time there were no full-frame digital cameras, only crop-frames like APS-C. If we consider crop-frame magnification (~1.6x) this Canon 17-55mm f/2.8 equates to 27-90mm – which is essentially a 24-70 with some free zoom, arguably most popular lens in modern film/full-frame photography.

Nowadays we rent the Canon 17-55 ƒ/2.8 to crop-frame camera wielding photographers and is the most popular wedding lens for shooters on crop bodies. The fact it’s a crop lens, with a shallow and bright ƒ/2.8 combined with Image Stabilising makes it a superb video lens and is even used as a kit lens on the C100MK2 production camera.

Canon 17-55mm f/2.8 Lens is lightweight, agile and stabilised crop-frame lens suited for anyone looking to rent a versatile, sharp and professional quality crop frame lens. One of very few crop frame ƒ2.8 lenses with stabilising.
