In fact, I've pretty much have decided that the 85mm is the better choice (for me).  In terms of tele-zoom lenses, and all other lenses, I'm somewhat of a purest in that I will only buy Nikkor/Nikon lenses. And, will pay as much as I can afford, and then some,  for my them. If you do buy a telephoto lens, I highly recommend the 70 - 200mm VR. It's a very versatile lens and will give you razor sharp images. Pricey, but worth every penney (actually dollars). Couple this with the TCII 1.7X or the 2.0X and you're in a different world altogether. Message of the day: "It's all in the glass" !!</blockquote>
