Hi Folks,

After shooting 35mm film, then APS-C Canons for many years, I have decided to treat myself to a full frame DSLR. Unfortunately the 5D3 has underwhelmed me, so I have put an order in for a D800. I am wondering where to put my money, as far as lenses are concerned?

My most used lens on my 40D was the 17-55mm f2.8 IS, so the Nikon 24-70 seems like an obvious choice? I am also likely to get the 24mm PC-E later, for landscape and architectural use. I'd also like a fast, light lens for street photography. I have read that the 50mm and 85mm 1.8 are both extremely good, and much cheaper than the f1.4 versions.

Does anyone have any of the above lenses, and care to comment on how they are on a D800 or D700?

Thanks,

Mike.
