Which Lens Should I Upgrade My Canon Kit Lens To?

The Three Lenses that are presented by Camera Labs as alternatives for the Canon 18-55mm Kit Lens are:

Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 Image Stabilized USM
Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM
Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Lens

One more that you might like to consider if you have the budget and are looking for another great walk around L-series Canon lens is the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM Lens. It’s not as wide angle as the others above but gives extra zoom length and is on a par with the 17-40mm in terms of quality (in fact they make a nice pair).
