I haven't used this lens much on a D800 but I shot an entire event (except for one image) with the 2nd gen. version on a D300.
It really was one of those "life changing" decisions. Before the 180mm f2.8 my best lens was the 50mm f/1.8 AFD.
Here is a video/slideshow I did with this lens a couple of years ago. Please excuse the quality of the video part, which was made with a point and shoot Sony.
To see it in best quality you need to click on Vimeo and then watch in full screen but with scaling off.

(Incidentally, the music is by a Mongolian band, but you would have never guessed it)
