I am pondering keeping an eye out for a deal on the 17-55 2.8 for use in indoor situations. (Christenings, church events, family stuff). Does anyone have experience with this lens on the r10 (or r7)? I know it is getting pretty old now, but I wonder how it performs. Alternative options also greatly appreciated.

I have a vague recollection of that lens being tested on the M6II, when it (the camera) was first released, and it not impressing. I could be wrong, though. I would (and do) use fast primes indoors on the R7 (or R10). My RF 35 and RF 50 F1.8 work very well on the R7, and the 16 F2.8 is a good moderate wide angle too.
