[QUOTE="bluenoser, post: 29745, member: 6351"] I can see why you like it Anthony! Super looking image (and nicely done HDR). I bought this lens used earlier this year and it has rarely come off my D7000 - it just oozes quality (although I did mix up the zoom and focus rings from time to time! LOL!) For DX - IMHO - the 17-55 range is more practical/useful than say a lens like the (incredible) 24-70. The 70-200 VRII is on my NAS list but I'll have to sell a kidney and a few other things to get it anytime soon. :) I'm not sure if I would have ponied up for the 17-55 brand new - awfully expensive - but I got a great deal at $820 which made it impossible to pass up. I will say that the heft of the lens did inspire me to get the MB-D11 grip to add better balance :) Looking forward to seeing more of your 17-55 images. [/QUOTE]
