thanks ..........upgraded d7100 camera body purchase mysteriously turned into a serious gold box event to the next level with all the gear .
last one before SWMBO sends the Visa to a date with the shredder .
I'd be interested to see how you get in with the lens and TC. I have the VRii and TC-20e iii. Post some pics when you've tried it.
I just ordered this - Nikon AF-S 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II
Should get here next week

Scott, great choice. As per another post of mine, make sure you AF Fine tune it. We have two copies of that lens in our house and the tune is different on 2 7100s and an 800. I'm not saying the lens is bad, it's just that with this one you will be after the best quality.

Its the Nikon 70-200 that I will be lugging around ;-)good thing u r young, i would not carry my tamron 70-200 at a wedding unless i had a porter.
Having developed all sorts of film (Plus-X, Tri-X, color negs, Ektachrome) back in the 70s and 80s, I decided to 'get back in to' developing film. I purchased a Nikon FM2n a couple years ago as I have several lenses that will work on it. Today, I took the next step, and got all the goodies needed to devleop black & white film.
I got that at christmas, excellent book.

Congrats and so jealous
I got bit by the Carbon Fiber bug, stung me right in the wallet it did! SIRUI P-326 6 Section Carbon Fiber Monopod, 22 lb. Load Capacity 15" closed and weighs under a pound. It will be interesting to see if the hype meets the facts. The reviews on this are 100% I don't know if I'll add a ball head to this or not. Kind of defeats the purpose I would think weight wise. But, even with a ball head it would still be under 2 pounds.

Scott, you lucky dog you!
Congrats! I hope you'll have a blast with the cool new lens!
Nikon 80-200 2.8, I love it. First fast pro lens, except for prime 35mm 1.8
