Just curious as to what everyone is lusting after right now, even though I've always been a Canon person I really would like to switch to Nikon and get the following stuff:

Nikon D700 w/grip
Nikon 35 f/1.4
Sigma 85 f/1.4

I'm currently using a 40d but would really like to go to full frame, the 5dII would be an easier transition but the AF is pretty lackluster and I think all the extra megapixels is overkill. Ideally over the next few years I want to jump into shooting weddings full time so the low light ability and AF are pretty critical.

What about you guys?

I'm actually fine with what I have for once...

Canon T2i
Canon 17-55mm f/2.8
Canon 430EX ii

Canon 50mm f/1.8
Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6

The top three with a tripod, bag, and some strobist gear are alone enough to satisfy me for a long time. Probably grab a cheap telephoto zoom to round things out sometime soon.

If I had to pick something, a waterproof housing or a second flash would be cool.
