I bought the 17-85 mm for use with my Canon 30D because my Tamron 28-200 [workhorse for EOS 3] gave me a working minimum focal lebgeth of about 45 mm. ALthough I love the lens for all it does, including its image stabilization, I hate the focal length range for all purpose shooting. If I could have at the time, I would have bought the Tamron 18-250 mm or 18-300 mm. I recommended the former to my son, who also has a 30D. He loves it and I'll be borrowing it for my upcoming trip to the SW National Parks.
