Hi


I am after the Nikon 80-200mm f2.8, from a UK supplier. Any ideas on a good price/ safe supplier. Tried 1 but he said it was discontinued? Any ideas.


Cheers Karl
 
You'll need to specify the model your after. There are quite a few 80-200's out there. AFD, AFDn, AF, AFS to name a few.
 
The AF-D is still in production I think but the AF-S (with the Silent Wave Motor) has been superceeded by the Nikon 70-200 VR1 and now 70-200mm VRII.

Approx (very) prices.
AF-D Push Pull £300 second hand
AF-D 2 ring £450-£550 second hand about £800 new?
AF-S about £750-£900 used
AF-S VR1 about £1,000 used £1,200? new
AF-S VRII about £1,600 new

Sorry.

More info:- Nikon AF Nikkor 80-200 f/2.8D ED. I would like to buy new and UK.

I would love the 70-200 2.8 vrII but funds will not stretch.


Thanks Karl
 
Camerabox list the 80-200, it's an import though.

I think they are only available new in the USA now - at least, thats what I was told when I was looking for one.
 
I got one you can buy. Cosmetically its in good condition, physically it needs a repair (the manual / auto clutch switch). Works 100% though. I'm in Canada though.
