With all due respect I have to disagree.  I shoot with the 1Ds and 
the 17-40 and the vignetting is very minor and only when close to 
wide open at the shorter focal lengths.  I just looked again at my 
own lens tests to be sure.  The 17-40 is a wonderful lens, better 
than the 20-35L I've been using for a long time.
