> Wow, seems like a pretty robust lens I don’t know how you would break it. I was unsure how it was going to work as a walk around lens on a crop body, but I have no complaints.

Camera on tripod.  
I set tripod down on pavement.  
I have a Gary the retard moment and forget to fold out one leg.  
Lens first into blacktop.

It still worked, front glass element shattered and the zoom function became tight around 35mm from the impact lol.
