Some unique lenses in their days were the olympus 12-60 and contax 21f2.8. The 21f2.8 had mustach wave form which was a bit annoying but amazing contrast and resolution. The 12-60 - was very very good though excessively large. Then again the original 4/3 system had some excessively large camers (like the e-3). These days the 12-100f4 is truely unique in performance (though i'm sure someone will compare it to 'relative' speed and claim otherwise); though it is a bit large for the system.
The 17-55 was ok but i'm not sure it is any better than the 12-40 (micro 4/3) or 18-55 (fuji); though it is a bit faster if you do relative comparison to the 12-40 and the 18-55 is a little slower at the long end.
