Well, it looks like I'm the first to respond. While I haven't gone digital yet, I do shoot Nikon and I've found 2 lenses have come in really handy. For a fixed or prime lense, I recommend the Nikkor 85mm D 1.8. It's fast on the AF, very sharp, and gives some really nice speed. As far as the other lense is concerned, I'm going to recommend the Nikkor 28 - 100 mm. I just got the "G" model, and there's a few drawbacks though. There's no appature ring, so you have to shoot on a program or shutter priority mode, but it is more affordable, it is Nikkor glass, so you are getting a solid lense.
