With the new version of the Nikon 24-70 being released, I was planning to wait a couple months for people to start getting gear envy and begin unloading their current 24-70's at a good price. However, a couple weeks ago Nikon had one of their sales on refurbished gear. With the additional 10% discount, I bit the bullet and picked up a refurbished copy for $1300, which is really only about $150-200 more than they are going for used! And I've never had anything but good luck with their refurbished gear. I still like shooting with primes, but for an event or travel, it's nice to be able to bring just one or two lenses and this replaces three of my primes when I need convenience, and still not sacrificing quality to do so.
Man oh man am I happy with it! I played with one a while ago, but I forgot just how fast they focus and how good the IQ is!
Happy "middle of the year with nothing particular to celebrate" gift to me!
