There is no 24mm f/1.8

Thank you, no need to update then

But it would be nice to see an update to the EF 20 2.8, maybe with stabilizer - in the same fashion as the 24IS.
And in the future something between 10 and 12mm at f2.5 or faster for FF... to basically give us a "prime version" of the EF 11-24, just a lot faster and an interesting rival to the new Sigma 14mm 1.8.

I do also have that lens
Well made (considering the price) and superb optical performance (except from wide-open to about f/2.8, which I don't use a lot because I'm more into landscapes). I believe that even the very expensive Zeiss Otus 55mm will not be any better, when you compare them both between f/4 and f/8.So optically speaking... I don't need anything better at that focal lenght, seriously. I'd only sell it for a double gauss 50mm with IS & USM and about the size/weight of the 35IS. Now such a lens would be the only "real" upgrade imo.

The EF-S 17-55 2.8 is overdue for an update, isn't it?
Also wish Canon would come up with something like an EF-S 45-120 2.8 IS. That's a relatively fast 70-200-ish equivalent but also less massive, say around the size of the EF 70-300 non-L and not that of the big white 70-200 2.8 or Sigma's 50-100 1.8.

in this case it is equivelent, depth of field, speed, field of view are all equal, effectively it would be the same lens with a little variation in the rear group to focus the same light over an APS-C sensor rather than a FF sensor.
