Need help to understand lens

[RK Conrad]

Here is a comprehensive review of the most-popular, most-common 80-200 AF-D, two-ring lens for Nikon mount: 80-200mm f/2.8 Lens Review by Thom Hogan

The earlier "one-ring" or "push-pull" variants are very inexpensive, and many are old now, and rather clunky, but cn be had very cheaply, have slow autofocus, but are a fulkl pound lighter than later models, but the optis are now only good, not very good, not excellent.

The later, low-production 80-200 f/2.8 AF-S is a nice lens, but is fairly hard to find. I had one for two years,and found it to be a good lens.

Very good article in an understanding way. Thank You, RK

I recommend it as well. This is a very good telephoto zoom lens. About $500 used. New they were $1800.

I think this is the one I'm going with. I hope I'm able to figure out the buttons in the middle of the lens. I think it will limit the focal length. Thank You, RK
