there's a reason for that. best damn wide angle zoom ever made. it's
my favorite lens. that, the 180/2.8, and the 60 micro, and you got all you
will ever need.

I have the Nikkor 35-70mm f2.8D and the Nikkor 80-200mm f2.8D but, as I'm
often in the mountains fishing, I have been lacking a wide angle for
panorama shots. I was thinking to buy the Nikkor 24mm 2.8D when I found out
about the Nikkor 20-35mm f2.8D and since then I've been watching Ebay for
one. I'm not surprised they're that expensive but I'm still having second
thoughts about it since the Nikkor 24mm 2.8D is quite a lot cheaper.

seen some shots taken with it that are really nice too. I want to get
something with a little more 'reach' than my 24-85mm Nikkor for when I
go out west this summer.

Ij--Gee Charlie guess you will have to get a trailer to haul all
these lenses behind the "terminator"
Anyone want to suggest the cheapest digital camera that I should get to
replace my film loading Stylis that sank off the side of my kayak.
Needed for camp scenes, creek pictures, and once in awhile for fish
picture.. Got a lesson in New Zealand on full extension of arms forward
when enlarging fish takes.

Just want to make sure I'm ready to get the shots of your big fish.

Not super cheap, but the Olympus Stylus (300 and 400) and the Pentax
Optio 33WR are water resistant. I don't think they float, though.
