Nikon AF 80-200 f/2.8 Lens

yes it's old school, but still a great performer. And no I don't know who this person is, just thought I share a great deal on a great lens.

Weird just saw this in portland craigslist yesterday and gone now.
Older push-pull for $375. And yep that's on the very lower end.
As usually they go for the $450-$550

Saw one idiot last month trying to sell one for $750. As can get the newer two-ring version for that.

Optically they are both the same. But newer one has faster AF.

Got mine on CL about 2 years ago for $400. Awesome lens.

Craigslist kicks ass for deals.

Pretty good price... non-d versions usually sell for around $400. Mind af-d versions sell fro $500-550, the two ring goes for around $700, the af-s for around $950.

I've owned all three configurations (two ring, push-pull and af-s) and I must say I really like the push-pull configuration, if only it focused as fast as the af-s. I don't think the two ring version is worth the extra $$, it focuses slightly faster the the push-pull, but for only $200 more you can buy an AF-S.
