While waiting-----I bought an F5 and slide projector

I've read way too many bad reports on the AF issues and the last thing I want to do is spend a few months with focus charts testing to make sure all is well. I really want a full frame camera and will wait for Nikon to "fess up", admit there is a problem and offer a solid fix.
So for now I'll invest in glass. I also have a Nikon F5 and a slide projector. Total cost for both $275. If I understand correctly, the Nikon F5 (film) is Full Frame. My D90 will do just fine for now to cover DX/digital.
Shooting Velvia 50 and 100 Slide film is an absolute blast ! I'm having way too much fun while I wait for thew D600/D800. If you've never shot Velvia 50 or used a Slide projector, I highly recommend it. Your hobby will instantly gain depth that you just dont have with digital. (Also your Daylight shots will BLOW YOU AWAY !)
I'll be picking up two lenses today, A Nikon prime 24, and a 85 1.8G. I already own the 50 1.8--- Is there any other must have FX glass for me to buy while I wait for the D800?
