Ask these people why they recommend against it. Either you will learn something about lenses and camera, or you will learn something about these 'some people' :bsmilie:Can the canon 17-40mm wide angle L lens be used on a crop sensor body of 550D? Some people recommend against it.
2. I usually do not recommend the lens because it is optically inferior, and in my opinion, unbefitting of its "L lens" status. I'd be happier with a Tamron or Sigma 17-50mm, the latter providing you with OS. The Canon 17-55mm f/2.8L IS is another strong contender.

It will not be as sharp as mounting it on a full frame.
Maybe it's just because the lens sits closer to the sensor..? What is the difference between a lens on 50D and 5D? Correct, it's a lens ...It is generally true when an EF lens used on a crop body yields less sharpness in terms of resolving power on MTF charts compared to a FF body as seen in here
