New Lenses to Add to my Collection. Any recommendations? at DVinfo.net

Hi Guys.

I'm slowly building my Nikon Lens collection. I currently have a 50mm normal lens, a 24mm wide, a 35mm wide, and a 135mm telephoto (it's not a Nikkor, but an Auto DeJur, should this make a big difference?)

I tried the telephoto and like it but it's REALLY close, so I want to pull back a bit. I am considering adding 85mm and 100mm telephotos to the collection. In addition, I am considering a super wide angle lens (The 24mm is great but I may want some Sergio Leone style wide shots. Not sure if the 24mm could handle it.)

I am considering a 20mm lens for really wide shots.

Any recommendations? Is this overkill? Any alternative lens types you think I should go with instead? What equipment are YOU guys using?

Thanks for listening.
