Good post. My photography (other than casual) pretty much cease back in 2002 when my house was broken into. While I had a nice 35mm SLR (Nikon 8008S) I really liked my lenses:

24 2.8 AF Sigma
28-70 2.8 AF Sigma
90 1:1 Macro 1.8 AF Sigma
80-200 2.8 AF Nikon

as I recall

Can you tell I like fast lenses \:\)
Off side is size (think the smallest filter I had was 72mm) and weight.
