I have, considered the Nikon 10/24 but I have always protected my lenses with a filter. There seems no way to do this with the ten. Maybe I am just too protective of my equipment? :)
End of discussion. Nikon AF-s G-ED 12~24 will exceed all your expectations. Excellent construction, superior contrast, matched to the Nikon system. It's fast focus and sharp as a tack. Perfect match for your D700. Anything else is a compromise.

I have taken several thousand pictures with the Nikon 14-24 f2.8 on my D700. It is a fantastic lens and sees an angle of view of 114 degrees at 14 mm. Here's a 14mm shot with that lens on a D700.

We really need to know which lens you have. Is it a 28-300 or an 18-200? If the 28 you NEED a wider lens. If the 18-28 you may just COULD USE a wider lens, but could get by quite well for now with what you have until you begin to get a 'feel' for the type of photos you shoot regularly.

Nikon has applied for a patent for an 18-300 lens, but only 3 months ago. It has 20 elements in it. It is only for APS-C (cropped) sensors. It should not be on the market yet. It's actual focal range is 18.8 - 291.
