Nikon AF 80-200 f/2.8 ED D

Pros: I recently bought the AF 80-200 f/2.8 ED D pump (used, second series), I share the previous reviews on yield and optical quality, excellent. The same goes for the blurry, really beautiful. The front lens does not rotate when focusing, unlike the first series.

Cons: The weight, for some is a pro, therefore depends on the points of view. It is not stabilized, it has no mounting ring for the tripod. The autofocus is not very fast, but in my opinion sufficient.

Opinion: Happy to have bought it, it repays all expectations. I never considered the 80/200 useful for portraiture, I preferred fixed optics. I was wrong, it detaches the subject from the background in an excellent way. Although dedicated to the fx format, my still valid d7000 is giving me very nice shots. This lens belongs to the generation of "made to last", nothing in common with the constructive fragility of modern lenses with integrated af motor and stabilizer. I prefer it to the "bighiera" precisely because the pump, without taking your hand off the ring can be zoomed and focused manually.
