Thanks Mark. If the zooms are getting good results then there isn't a lot of incentive to get a prime.
Nikon does not seem to have many fast primes anyway unless I am looking at the wrong lists.
85mm and 50mm would be a workhorse. A macro would be nice or a zoom that also does macro. The 24-70 gets really close anyway.
There is a Nikon D800 manual available for download from Nikon now and here is a link to various galleries shot with D800:

There is a lot of mention in the manual about reducing motion blur.
That makes sense as why use so high a resolution camera and then lose that sharpness with sloppy technique.
There's also a good review of the Sony Nex7 which is 24.3mp APS -C sensor in a mirrorless body! Gee whiz, cameras are suddenly making a leap forward.
Also this rumour about the 5D mark iii. Supposed to be announced on Feb 28. That's only 10 days.

The rumour is consistent with various leaks for some time now. 22mp was mentioned ages ago.
Greg.
