Cons:structure dangerously similar to the plastic structure of the 24-70 VR, buttons
Opinion:Good speed AF (but not higher than that of VR2), excellent VR, excellent optical performance but I can honestly say, having possessed them at the same time, that such performance – VR aside – are absolutely INDISTINGUIBILI from those of VR2. And I say this in the face of several double-blind sessions performed with two different groups here in Rome. Those who describe different performances between the two did not have them together at the same time, that is, have problems with visus, or have to justify to themselves a compulsive purchase, or even is a taliban fanatic of the brand. PRO optics are those that withstand the stresses of working allow the professional to take home photos to earn his loaf and this is absolutely not the case. The VR2 was externally built in magnesium alloy and you could see clearly while the FL resembles a plastic, that solidity is a distant memory, the only part that in my eyes appears solid is the bracket that even this time seems to ignore that there is the Arca Swiss attack. The buttons on such a short focal lens are absolutely useless to me. The Brand's Taliban always like to point out that the focus breathing has been eliminated: nothing more fake, the FB is still there although very small. But the FB of VR2 was absolutely not a flaw, it was part of the project specifications and allowed to shoot even in cramped spaces, like a small room... After all emphasis, those who today consider the purchase of the FL still buy an excellent OPtics SEMI PRO that, if you do not take a few bangs on the keg (the disading of the lenses on plastics of a certain length is always around the corner) will give nice satisfactions. It will give by way of saying, given the cost of the official product. NB: I have it now and I keep it, but in hindsight I say that, being able to go back, maybe I would have kept the VR2
Pros:Resolution and sharpness, very fast in focus, excellent color rendering. Excellent keeping of the price of the used. (Price to new European import with Italian guarantee much cheaper than the official importer.)
Cons:Nothing particular. It is initially necessary to become familiar with the inverted dials; also not to move them accidentally being very soft.
Opinion:Before buying it, about four months ago, I considered the previous VR version, the Tamron g2 and the Sigma Sport. With everyone, courtesy of a shop in my town, I took a few test shots. In the end I decided for the Nikkor FL. If you have to drown, you might as well do it in the sea!! It is not secondary to switch ALL metadata, including fixes, to PS. Not only do technical tests place it on top of all the others, including Sony G Master, but also in concrete use it has proven unbeatable. Only in some cases, by direct comparison, has it proved to be no less or equal. Stunning chromatic yield. Generally mind-blowing focus speed; it is very difficult to get him into difficulty, (but not impossible). VR does its job well. Of course, like all zooms, you can't compare it to the quality of a fixed optics, but the lack makes it feel only on rare and particular occasions.
Cons:ring without blocks in any focal, inverted dial compared to what it should be, too soft dials, price if not taken import
Opinion:First experience with positive pro nikon optics. Excellent in everything and I preferred it to Sigma 70-200 Sport because of the weight. 400g less feel. The only bad thing for me is the dials. Really too soft, which can also be a value at certain times, only that it really takes a breath to make them turn and since there is no blockage, nor at 70 ne to 200, you could move even if you don't want to. For example, sigma has beautiful hardlines and it is more difficult to happen. For the rest I can only praise, even the weight is a feather especially when compared to the new sigma. Taken import paying it the right and it's worth it.
Cons:Excessively soft ice. Weight, weight, weight... Ah, I forgot... Weight!
Opinion:It's my first 70-200 and I have to say it's a fantastic view. Sharp, fast autofocus and creamy fuzzy. The weight from "bilico" is something to which I was not used, but I do not make text (I come, in fact, from a 70-300 VR that weighs less than half and is still a very good goal, also very sharp, albeit dark). I did a three-hour shoot with him today and I came out with my arms slaughtered... however, it gives satisfaction just to hold it in your hands, and with the D3s and the D810 with BG it balances well. The construction is solid (and we would miss it too!). He obviously gives his best with the Big-Mpx. VR keeps its promises and "enters" very quickly. The cost is high, but you know at the start.
Opinion:I switched from version vr2 to Vr and FL as they baptized it, what about, I agree with most of the opinions described by friends. The first thing I noticed is the AF, lightning-fast in all circumstances. The second thing is the sharpness at all focal lengths with aperture at f/2.8. I have to get used to it again with the focal ring moved forward, but having only two days is normal, I'll get used to it. For the rest of the stellar optics, if you have the opportunity to take it you can not miss in a kit Nikon.Su d850 expresses its full potential. Vote 10 and praise. After a while ' to have tried it I can only emphasize what has been written before, indeed to all those who have doubts what is better or which 70/200 2.8 choose, do not waste time, if you have the chance the Nikon is the top of the top.
