And it would have to be mounted on an F5!

p.2 #3 · your lens combo setup gear?

If I.m just going out driving and shooting locally at the wildlife refuge .. I throw 1 bag in the truck ..

D300 w/ 70-200mm f2.8vr
D50 w/ 80-400mm vr
D80 w/ Bigma
D70 w/ Tamron 200-500mm
D70 w/ 12-24mm

If I'm gonna go to a photoshoot .. I throw a different bag in the truck consisting of the D300 with the 17-55 f2.8 and the D80 as backup with the 35-70mm f2.8 and the general purpose 18-135mm lens with the sb600 and sb800.

sortof a what.s in your bag question I guess .. enough I say for now .. though I.m on the fence over an over the top Panasonic video procamcorder dvx1000b something or other or a 200-400mm Nikon lens ..

In my typical travel bag:
D3+14-24+28-75(Tammy)+70-200VR+105VR+50 1.4+TC1.7
D200+10.5+12-24(Tokina)+17-50(Tammy)+80-400OS(Sigma)
D40x+18-200VR
I often replace a few lenses by some primes (35 1.4AIS, 85 1.8, 105 2.5AIS, 24 2.0AIS,...) and/or the F5+28-105 or 35-70 2.8.

D3
28-70mm f2.8 ED
70-200mm f2.8 ED VR
105mm f2.8 ED n VR Micro

But I generally use the 28-70 as my "walk around" lens.
