A couple other reviews, which also compare. FM reviews also often
compare, and are generally very positive. There does seem to be some
sample variation, but whether it's in the lens or the user is up for
grabs! ;-)

Well, unless you can compare it to something, which this site does, it
is a moot point.
Not to upset you if you own one, but I have not heard anyone rave about
this lens. The 24-105, yes, the 70-200 IS , yet the 17-40 no.
