It really depends on what sort of stuff you shoot mostly and whether you're happy doing that with the (good, but big and heavy) zoom, or if you are going to take 1-2 prime lenses instead.
The classic AF lenses are great, can't go wrong with them really.
If you get the 50/1.4 I'd suggest finding one with the larger, more rubbery manual focus ring on the front (not the first gen with the thin plastic ring).
The 85/1.8 is awesome as well for portraits etc.Personally I'd definitely get a 35mm for everyday use. The 35/f2 is really good.
For this (and anything wider) I'd ask myself though whether I really want / need this to be AF.
Just because your camera can do autofocus doesn't mean you will use it all the time; depending on what you shoot a manual focus lens might be nicer to handle, cheaper, etc. when it comes to wide angles.. likely you'll just pre-set the focus anyway when depth of field is covered and focus more on your framing etc. - just a thought.Have fun with the F4, great camera!

Anyone got any AF lenses that would work on the new F4 I just got? Just got the 35-70 f2.8 based on Ken Rockwell's recommendation, anything else? The 50 1.4 and 85 1.8 are both already on the list.
