Simple solution don't buy EF-S lenses and plan to go to a 5D on 1D

But what do you substitute the 10-22 EF-S or 17-85 IS EF-S with?

The 10-22 with a 1.6x crop is better in the corners than the 16-35L on a
FF. The 28-135 IS not a stellar lens; it's only quality is its IS.

The 17-85 and 28-135 are roughly on the same level, optically, from all
reports. And the 16-35 stopped down to the f3.5 that the 10-22 starts at
starts to look a little better in the corners. And the 10-22 really sucks
at f2.8... ;-)


Yeah, it is pretty unusable at f/2.8.
