Just bought Tammy 17-55 from Henry's last sat... He still has stocks left..
Just be careful in choosing the lens... The first unit I tested have back focusing issue...
Nevertheless, I am enjoying the one I bought... Very good IQ at f5.6 compared to my kitlens.  :)

Im also interested in getting this type of lens. Kaya lang meron bang gantong lens with IS/VC/OS? Pasmado kasi ako kaya I guess its better for me to have a lens with IS/VC/OS. Researched a bit and didnt find 2.8 na IS/OS lens sa Canon and Sigma. How about Tamron and Tokina?

Just got the Sigma 18-50f2.8 about 2 weeks ago.

Very nice and sharp.  Mabilis din ang AF and quiet.

Having a local distributor (JT Photo) is also nice in case there is any need to have the lens serviced.

here's another vote for the Tamron 17-50 f/2.8
medyo plasticky nga lang yung build, but so far the image quality is great. much better than my kit lens and 17-85mm

i don't think there's a lens in this range with IS/OS/VC, but i might be wrong
