I like it a lot -crisp images and great low light performance. It is a bit big and heavy is my major issue.

You bet. But is it normal? No. However most zoom lenses of this type will creep sooner or later if you use it a lot.</P><P>Depending on how old it is, you may get Canon warranty to service it.&nbsp;They can tighten it up. My 24-105mm f4 L does that too.</P><P>I just live with it as this lens has seen a lot of duty.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>This is actually a pretty nice lens. I was thoroughly impressed with the one I got to try.</P> Wed, 06 Nov 2013 21:59:12 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/EF-RF-Lenses/My-EF-S-17-55-f-2-8-IS-lens-has-developed-serious-lens-creep-Is/m-p/47525#M19117 ebiggs1 2013-11-06T21:59:12Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/EF-RF-Lenses/My-EF-S-17-55-f-2-8-IS-lens-has-developed-serious-lens-creep-Is/m-p/47543#M19118 Thanks, have to check how long I've had it.
