Any opinions on Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8 vs 70-300mm f/4-5.6 ED?

[QUOTE="hark, post: 751482, member: 13196"] I have this lens, BF Hammer. It is quite sharp. Not only were the first and last images taken at 200mm, all of these images were heavily cropped from the originals - and all taken with a D750. As with any lens, there are going to be slight differences in how one performs vs. an identical copy. Mine was purchased as preowned. I also have the optional Nikon tripod foot/collar with a Black Rapid strap attached to the foot. I also have a Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 VR lens (AF-S version). Personally I prefer the IQ of the Nikon 70-200mm f/4 VR. The weight is a little heavier and is larger than the 70-300mm lens but no where near as heavy as the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 VR. EDITING to directly add the photos to this post rather than to redirect with a link to the original post.
