Canon TS-E 17mm f/4 L Tilt-Shift Lens

 

The Canon TS-E 17mm f/4 L Tilt-Shift Lens is, at review time, the widest tilt-shift SLR lens made.It is also one of the highest quality (both optically and physically) 17mm lenses made.

Canon TS-E 17mm f/4 L

 

The Canon TS-E 17mm f/4 L is an amazing lens although beginners will struggle to master its possibilities at once. When using the lens based on conventional settings it behaves pretty much like a normal ultra-wide prime lens. The center performance is...

Simply Amazing

 

This lens is technically flawless and simply amazing. I shoot landscape and architectural photography. This lens handles both so well. Of course, it's main application will be architectural photography. But it shines in landscape as well, especially if...

Amazing Lens

 

I bought this lens after my extreme satisfaction with EF 14mm f/2.8L II USM. I wanted a lens that corrects the super wide angle distortion effect. I took this lens with me to Paris and used it to photograph cathedrals and buildings. After few attempts,...

Must Have in the Camera Bag

 

I've now owned the 17mm TS mounted on a Canon 5D MarkII for several months shooting home interiors for the Real Estate market. My 'backup' lens is now my 7D with a Canon 10-22mm lens, which is my comparison setup. I will not go into detail here as many...

a TS-E lens I dreamed of came true!

 

I've been an architectural shooter for over 20 years. I've been through several wide lenses starting with the 20mm, then the 17-35, 17-40, 16-35 and I currently have the 16-35 Mark II. While it's the best of the zooms and better than the fixed 20mm, it...

super sharp to the edges , tilt shift , low flare , low c.a. , low distortion

no provision for polarizing filter

Best digital solution vs 4x5

 

I'm a professional architectural photographer and a semi-pro landscape photographer. With extensive 4x5 film experience, this lens gets me back to 99% of the capability of a 55mm lens on 4x5 using film. Some people on other forums have suggested that...

Superior build quality , Super-sharp images , ease of use
