Excellent lens, speed of AF is mind-boggling. Having said that I never felt it was quite as nice to use as the 80-200 AF-S (the rare one), I found the IS quite off-putting so switched it off...so should probably just have stuck with the old lens!
I finally got mine a few months back too, to match up with the D800. Excellent combination, as expected. I've used it for all sorts, street, gigs, school plays [got another one this morning, will be using the 70-200 again] portraits and landscape.
The only time this lens isn't useful is indoors for group shots
It works a treat apart from the fact it vignettes slightly on FX. Although it's quicker than my DA*60-250 I favour the Pentax lens so I am contemplating stepping up to Mk2 in 2013/4
