[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 69170, member: 6548"] I've used one (17-55/2.8) It is a beast of a lens. My understanding is that they started out around a grand but now have went up to about 1500 but I do not know if that information is correct. If you are a pro or you have the money I would say go for it. If you are an armchair photographer I would do something less expensive. I wouldn't worry to much about the low light speed because with digital and the D7000 in particular the body is going to carry you in most situations. This is a pic of the 17-55/2.8 mounted on a gripped D7000...
