Hello,
So here's my story. I was re-organizing my room. Got stuck in a tight space with a chair and picked the legs up so they were horizontal. And one of the legs knocked my 7D down onto my carpet. It wasn't a far drop at al. Like three feet, but the reason something broke is because it landed lens first and didn't fall over. All the pressure wentstraight thru the barrel. So I picked it up, turned it on took a picture seemed fine at it's lowest focal point (17 mm.), however i tried changing it on the zoom ring and nothing happened. I also believe the autofocus is damaged as well... what do you think is wrong wit this and any idea how much it will cost to replace the parts. This is a Canon 17-55 f2.8 I've been meaning to buy a Mark III sometime soon so I was debating on whether or not it would be worth it. Thank you for your input if you have any.

Sorry, you have to call for repairing center to estimate the cost of lens repairs, and I don't know you have the insurance or not. For most this kind the photo equipments you should get the "Camera and Equipment Insurance" in case like that.
Here the info for insurance: http://photo.net/learn/insurance
