Nothing! It survived with a tamron 17-50 2.8 attached

Was horseback riding and my backpack opened somewhere along the way. Down goes camera and lens. Hits horse then ground. Horse behind be didn't step on it, thank god.

Approx 7-8 foot fall

Amen! My D60 fell 3 feet from table to floor. Body was ok but the lens mount broke. The lens is usable as long as you hold it to the body. Thank god it was just the kit lens.
