I second the 70-200 f/2.8. Sharp on d800 at f/8 and acceptably sharp at f/5.6; that is sharp while pixel peeping a d800 image. Sharp at all apertures on cropped sensor.

I third it. The 70-200vr2 for me is the sharpest. AF fine tuned it is tack sharp at 2.8 and beyond. This is at 100% on D800 @ 200mm
