I used the original 60 micro. The new one should be pretty cool.

Yes, the 60 micro sounds interesting, but I'd prefer the 105 micro still for the extra reach - but a lot heftier... Will have to see the price tag first!

The 16-85 should make a great light weight walk around lens too, I can see it replacing the existing 18-70 and 18-135 as a standard kit lens without a doubt, especially with the VR. But a little more reach won't hurt... pity.
