Just got a new toy!

Just received the nikon 80-200 push pull lens!!
After reading so many threads about telephoto lenses, KmH convinced me (without even talking to him) that this lens was the way forwards, in terms of quality for money.
Managed to get it for £350 off ebay in the UK, and it seems to be in excellent condition. Not had much of a play with it just yet, but took a couple of snaps and really happy with the quality of it... But my god its heavy!

Basic images, but just showing you what its all about.

If you're in the whole 70-200 argument with yourself, take a look at this lens if your budget is the problem.

Congrats of the self-gift. Judging by the images, it looks like a pretty sharp lens, and the bokeh is reasonably pleasing to say the least. Enjoy!

Thanks! I'm pretty excited to play with this lens.
