Thanks very much for the replies.

Im currently using the D5100 with the kit lens. I have just upgraded my small travel tripod which I don't think was up to the job with a Giottos MTL9361B which on first impressions seems fantastic.

I use a Nikon ML-L3 for remote release and have recently started using manual focus at the Hyperfocal Point for better results. I am hoping these measures will aid an improvement in technique but it is my aspiration to build a system probably around a D800, and given the expense of such equipment don't really want to invest in DX lenses with a pending FX upgrade. Hence my search for the first lens I should get.

My first thoughts was the Nikon 12-24mm, but I use a Lee 100mm filter set and would prefer to stick with it.

Again many thanks.
