I have to say that both of these are ever so tempting.

Currently trying to weigh up whether I get the 20mm 1.8 instead of the 14-30mm... but I think I'd prefer the width of the 14-30mm - the 14-24 is unlikely to be in my price range when it does launch...

I still going to get the 200-500 5.6 F mount in March though, quite looking forward to having a lens with more than 200mm for the first time in 10 years.

The 20mm f1.8 will be an awesome lens.

I have the 20mm f2.8 AFD so this wont work in AF mode on the FTZ adapter.
The 24-200 is less interesting but would be a nice travel lens.

Thought I'd add that I've been very pleased with the 14-30mm Z lens. Certainly better than the 16-35mm it replaces.

Also the 200-500 has been added to my kit, a definite challenge in terms of using it but enjoying having that much more reach.

Definitely adding the 500 PF onto my future - very-long-term wishlist.

The 20mm 1.8 is still a lens I want to get in the near term but it seems there's still no availability in sight so might get the 85 1.8 or 35 1.8 before it after-all. Have been quite lucky in that working from home has actually made more funds available so have been going a bit crazy on glass the last couple of months...

Chris I am very pleased with my 20mm f1.8 very sharp and no distortion even on as full frame camera.
