thnx.. i already posted on photography-on-the.net ...
was hoping maybe someone local had one for sale..
That is a very good lens !
try www.henrys.com or www.cameracanada.com
I think that lens is around $1,000 anyway, a bargain for the L lens !
Even go to Camerastore, that lens is not expensive. :) and probaby hard to find a used one, since it is quite new, and people love it, and it fits D-SLR perfect !
anyway, after you buy it, and when u sell it, let us know !

Go to Don's photo if you are going to buy new.
I got my 16-35 2.8L for nearly the same price as B&H (after shipping and all that jazz).

the camera store... i think thier website showed something liek $12XX when i last checked.. maybe instore is a diff price..
cameracanada.com has good price, but apparently they have a bad rep with Canon Canada.. sometimes they take awhile to get canon items instock(i checked thier site yesturday, 17-40 not instock)
henrys..."ok" pricing u can find anywhere...
meh, not in a big rush to buy...
also looking for a 24-70 f2.8 L for decent price(average price for used is $1300 i think) will buy 1 of the 2 lenses...depends which i can find.

Go with the 17... trust me. The 28-70 you will find is not wide enough when you are in a tight spot.
Website prices mean nothing. Go down and bargain.
