This is a lovely lens. I paired it with a 70-200 Sigma Sport for a wedding recently and it held up great.
This is a pretty good price for new, but this lens has been around for a long time and...

Great price. Good lens. It's notorious for acquiring dust in the lens for some reason.

I saw some Canon lenses were on sale, so I looked for others.
Saw this 17-55mm for $549 at many retailers.
