Does anyone use VR anyway? it seems most members like faster glass. I dont use vr myself even though its a usefull option at times.

Well personally I'd like to see some nice primes.. ie something to match the Canon 35 f/1.4 for example. Or a 70-200 f/4 L (with or without VR)

I'd always choose faster glass!

No idea if Nikon have any plans for primes, I'm not sure, probably a 35/2 and an 85mm with AF-s but I can't see either having VR.

I would like a wide angle anything from 24 to 35mm f1,4 if it was affordable

vr is pretty much what makes the 18-200 for me but apart from that probably not so much

Wish list forNikon lenses all AF-S

35 1.4/1.8
24 1.8
85 1.4 ( got the AFD so doubt I'd get a new one straight away but... )
135 2

That'd do me :D

The 35/1.4 is AI-S and a rare as rocking horse you-know-what.

Its supposed to be very nice, but you need to go on Ebay and find a good used one. And you'll pay through the nose for it.

One of the main ones they are missing is the 70-200mm F4 AF-S VR. Id also like to see 5:1 Macro lens like Canon has. Oh and a super sharp FF wideangle like the 14-24, but one that takes filters. And while were at it id also like a 50mm F1 just like Leica have please. :D

No not really.:p

My wishlist doesn't actually include any of them. My next is hopefully going to be a super tele. Something like a 600mm f4 or 300-800mm f5.6. going to have to do some serious saving first though.
