I know this is a pretty new model, so there's aren't a lot of used ones out there, but if anyone has one that they don't use, or needs the money for something else, I'd love to hear about it. About to take a trip to the outback, and this thing will be sweet for that big-ass rock out there. Thanks!

I don't have one but I thought I would comment that it is a very attractive lens. The focal zoom length is very attractive when putting it up against the nikkor 10.5 non-zoom. The only down side is it's not quite as fast. I wish nikon (or somebody) would make something like the sigma lens with a 2.8 constant f-stop.

I just watched the 'Discovery Atlas' show tonight and it featured the land down under. I saw that "big-ass rock" you were talking about. Looks pretty cool.
