you SHOULD want it even more. I can hand hold the thing down to like .8 seconds at around 25mm and can hand hold it at 1/4 at 55mm and still get sharp pics. The IQ is as good wide open as it is stopped down, and its a fairly nicely weighted lens, not too heavy yet not a toy.

I REALLY want a 10-22mm. Just need to sell a kidney first.

17-55 is wide angle lens
18-55 is a wide angle lens too, btw.
it just that the long end of the lens falls into early mid zooms, however if you want a lens around the 30mm mark and up, then there are better options. with less distortion available in those focal ranges. if you are looking for a mid focal length lens, have you looked at other options that don't have 35mm+ focal lengths towards the end of the zoom?
10-22 is wide too, but thats like super wide.

because that IS the wide lens of the L line.
16-35 and 17-40 are the two wide zoom lenses they make for the L line.
mid focal would be 24-105 and the 24-70
telephoto would be the 70-200s and up.
if you are looking for a mid focal length lens, I'd recommend one where the main focal range doesn't fall into the two opposing extremes of the telephoto ends.

Just got my Rebel XSi with the "kit" lens.
But, I purchased the additional EFs 70-300mm IS USM and replaced the stock lens with the 17-85mm IS USM. Selling the kit lens.
Love the camera, but still have much learning to do.

the 35mm-50mm sweet spot in the focal range falls smack dab in the middle of the 24-70. With room to spare on both ends of the zoom.
anything from 17-28mm on a cropped sensor like yours will still introduce wide angle distortion.
plus since the 24 70 isnt an ef-s lens, it will still prove useful later if you decide to upgrade to full frame.
also 24-70 has ranges that your 10-22 doesn't have.

EDIT: An L lens with a shorter range does exist. The 14mm f/2.8 L II USM.
