You can't recommend a Canon lens to a D700 user. Not helpful...[/quote]
Apologies. I didn't know he is a Nikon user. O.K. I'll shift me recommendation to the 105/2.8 VR. I shot with a friend's lens long ago and it was every bit as good as the Canon. Actually, after trying it (when the the 100/2.8 IS was just a rumor) I've been lusting it so much that I considered getting a D700 just to be able to use it. Thing is, I hesitated so much that Canon had the time to actually launch the 100/2.8 IS. I think they were afraid I'd switch.... <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
