[QUOTE="Steve in Oz, post: 660284, member: 41182"] I have a D7200, and am choosing between a new 70-300 f4.5-5.6G IF ED VR, and a second hand 80-200 f2.8D (about three years old). Both are around the same price (approx AUD800). I like the idea of the build quality on the 80-200 ('serious' metal and glass) but the 70-300 is newer technology and has VR. I have no plans to move to FX (that said, both these lenses are FX). The lens I mainly use now is the 16-80 f2.8-4E DX, so I've been spoilt for image quality. Keen to hear what people think. [/QUOTE]
