Completes the "Holy Trinity"

Generally, even the best of zoom lenses are put to shame by a great prime lens. Best to have both.

Ok, I won't tempt you with any fast primes. ;-)

How about an "E" lens, say an Nikon 300mm F2.8 or a 500mm F4?

Dang, I wish I could sell my firstborn child so I could buy get that trio, but no one's taken me up my offer yet. She comes complete with four adorable kids under five years old. Any takers? (Never mind, I wouldn't have anything to photograph.)
You might be better off to buy her a TV.:-)

Dang it! I bought the 70-200 2.8 a few months ago and STILL find my self using the 70-300mm VR instead due to weight and stabilization. I play around with the 70-200 in low light situations but when it comes to grabbing a long lens to put in my bag and take with me, I almost always choose the 70-300. Same with the 24-70mm 2.8. I love the idea of this lens and love it, love it for what it is....but if I'm going to be walking around all day I choose the 24-85mm or the very lightweight Nikon 28-200mm. I probably will never buy the 14-24mm as I use a Sigma 12-24 and am very satisfied with it.

Hi Guys
Finally did it. Completed the "HOLY TRINITY". GOT the 70-200 2.8. Will arrive on Tuesday from B&H. In time to shoot the leaved changing. Can't wait. The 24-70 and 14-24 are my two favorite lenses.

You already had a D810 and a D4s to put them on?
