Thanks for the info. I have the 16-85 and am quite pleased with it. Do not need anymore lenses for "casual" shooting. I need, if possible, to up my game. Should probably be looking harder at primes. The l05vr is still at the top of my wish list.

i was originally going to order another sbh-100, but for another $25 i got this, it is now on my tripod and the sbh-100 is on my monopod, one plate fits all, i didnt think there would be much of a size difference, but it was larger.
So next purchase will be either ps elements/lightroom of a lens filter for the sun?
I finally pulled the trigger on a U2413 ultrasharp monitor. Dell had dropped the price to $435 (they drop the prices randomly for some reason) coupled with MT's "no sales tax" policy and Dell's free shipping, I couldn't resist. Frankly, I'm glad I did. The monitor is awesome and is capable of displaying 120% of the sRGB color gambit and 99% of the adobeRGB color gambit. I waffled back and forth between the 24'' vs. the 27'' but settled for the 24''. So far I'm happy with the choice but find myself wondering what the 27'' looks like.

New 70-200 F/4, I originally test drove it for two weeks and decided to go longer with the 80-400.
Of course after some time I decided I Needed both
Cheers, Don

Congrats!
Those are both wonderful lenses.
I was just wondering what the 80-400 didn't provide that required the purchase of the 70-200.

The 80-400 is a bit much in the studio, size wise and reach wise. I also didn't think I would miss the 10mm between the 24-70 and the 80-400 but I do, once in a while
The 70-200 is more appropriate (with a collar) and is a great "normal" walk around lens, it feels just right/nicely balanced.
Coming over from Olympus the combo is also lighter and smaller....

so you think your sensor is clean.............
$20 bucks says "no way" .

I looked in the d7000 and it looked like the dustbowl of the great depression in there .
The 7100 is the reason I got it though , it had a big hairball that was showing up in the sky at f16.
and this little marvel did the trick in less time than it took to get it out of the storage tube .
