Fully functional in manual focus, and autofocus works correctly at the wide end. As is \u003cstrong\u003ecommon with this model\u003c\/strong\u003e, the lens will begin to hunt and struggle to lock focus as it approaches the 85mm end of the zoom range. Image Stabilisation operates normally.

Many examples develop AF issues at the telephoto end due to ribbon‑cable fatigue; this lens shows the same behaviour and is priced accordingly. Still fully usable in MF or at the wider end of the zoom range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEF‑S mount for Canon APS‑C DSLRs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17–85mm versatile zoom range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImage Stabilisation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSM autofocus (fault at tele end)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully functional in MF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSEO KEYWORDS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCanon EF‑S 17–85mm, Canon 17–85 IS USM, EF‑S zoom lens, Canon APS‑C lens, 17–85mm autofocus issue, Canon USM lens\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Canon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54010317537622,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0875\/5213\/1414\/files\/IMGP8231_7845168c-cbd1-4b3d-b3ec-a8ff0288c400.jpg?v=1779893203","url":"https:\/\/colinscameras.co.uk\/products\/canon-ef-s-17-85mm-f-4-5-6-is-usm-af-zoom-lens-with-caps-hunt","provider":"Colins Cameras","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
