I use the 180/2.8 and its amazing. :)

Of AF Nikkor I also use the 105/2 DC and 60/2.8 micro, which are also exceptional lenses.

As I already have a Zeiss 35mm f2 ZF, getting an AF 35mm f2 would be redundant. I would just never actually use it.

Would love a D4 or D4s, which is the same sensor as the Df, but otherwise much better. The only feature I'd love to have from the Df is the ability to use pre-AI lenses.

Most excellent! I landed a pretty clean copy of the 180mm F2.8D and I love it. Don't miss my former TANK 70-200 one bit!
 
The 180 AF-D is easy to carry on outings!
 
Nice setup, I’m jealous!

Of the three, which lens is your most used?
The 35mm is my "daily carry" but the 85mm gets used the most. That darn lens still impresses me!!! Shot this yesterday.

The 85 was on my short list but since I purchased the 70-200/2.8 I’ve not seen a need for it and it has since dropped lower on my to buy list. I still wouldn’t pass up on a deal if I saw one though.
 
Thanks everyone. I'm in love with all three of my lenses. And I'm amazed at everything I can with "just these three".
 
I like the D glass too, though I'm using it with my ratty old D700 - can't seem to let go of it. The Voigtlander 58mm f/1.4 is mounted. Manual focus, but nice when I'm in the mood and my eyes are cooperating ...
