What I like about the non-stabilized lenses is that they are a little cheaper and there is less that could go wrong with them if and when a repair becomes necessary.But for a cropped sensor, have you also considered the 17-50 2.8 alternatives? For me, I'd miss the 17-24 portion more then the 50-70, but that's me.Tamron also has produced a 28-75 2.8 that had a very good reputation for sharpness.</blockquote>
