    * Nikkor 16-35mm f/4 - already released

    * Nikkor 24mm f/1.4 – already released, will ship next month (March, 2010).

    * Nikkor 85mm f/1.4

    * Nikkor 35mm f/1.4

    * Nikkor 100-500mm f/4-5.6

    * Nikkor 24-120 f/4 VR lens

    * Nikkor AF-S 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6G VR lens

    * Nikkor 18-135mm F/3.5-5.6G ED VR (DX lens)

    * Nikkor AF-S 50mm f/1.2G.

    For me The new 85mm and maybe the 100-500mm if priced OK, but the cost of the new 24mm lens does not look promising for the 85mm. I think it would be neat if Nikon made a new 50mm F1.2, but then again it will properly end up the same size and even higher cost than the one from Canon ($1600+ area). The 18-135 could end up being a great starter lens if it is made like the old 18-135 with VR added

    What do you think

    If the image quality rivals Nikon's best, I'll get the 100-500. I hope it's less than $3,000, otherwise it will take a long time to buy.

    If I'm stuck with the D200 this year (which I probably will be), none.

    If the D700s comes out and I can convince my wife I need the extra stops and DR, I would sell my 17-55 DX and 11-16 DX for the 16-35/4 and possibly a 35 1.4 (depending on pricing) or 85 1.4 or 70-200 VR2 (I'm all over the place, like my f'in photography, as I transition more into candid/portrait stuff). . .

    100-500 and 85/1.4 but all depends on price. I'll not spend more than $2250 on the long one and more than $1600-1700 on the prime.

    Yes I agree, but the new 24 prime is $2200, how could they make the new 85 any cheaper if made the same way.
