You are going to enjoy this lens it is as sharp an IQ as the "E" series Nikon lenses. Next you might think about the 14-24mm and the 70-200mm which combined with what you have are the best lenses Nikon produces.

Enjoy it, I do. Santa just brought me the 3rd in the trinity, 14-24 f/2.8G ED. Man this sucker is big. Have not tried it yet. My eye surgery got in the way and, as I have waited this long, I think I am going to have my wife wrap it and give it to me on Christmas as a present when everyone is here exchanging
All three lenses in the Trinity are great; the 14-24 is fun. Great Christmas present.

I got this several years ago to round out the trinity. It's really a great lens, but it's really the most inconvenient lens I own, even more inconvenient than my Bigma (Sigma 50-500). It doesn't fit well in my bag, so it doesn't go into my bag sometimes.
But when I get to use it, it produces outstanding images (as long as I have an outstanding subject in front of it).
