[QUOTE="singlerosa_RIP, post: 660434, member: 15556"] I've owned both and I'd take the 80-200. Hands down a much better lens if you can live without VR. I owned the non VR version of the 70-300 and sold it to buy the current FX model. To me, the older model was sharper. Both versions struggle a bit at 300mm. The 80-200 is built like a tank, has better glass and has the 2.8 constant aperture. Not only is it a great tele, it's an awesome portrait lens. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
