[QUOTE="dukatum, post: 296263, member: 23829"] If I was you I'd jump at the chance, especially if you can get 'family rates'. The 80-200 is meant to be a fantastic lens, and very solid. Hopefully it's a two ring version they are selling. It also doubles up as a perfect "home protection weapon" because that thing is really solid for hitting people on the head (I don't do it on a regular basis, but you know...) This is one of those lenses where you can truly say "they don't make them like they use to". I've had an eye on the 80-200mm for a while and only find the Tamron 70-200mm to be a lens worthy of comparing to it. EDIT: If you don't want it, (and it is 2 ring, not push/pull zoom) please do let me know how much they might sell it for. I'd be very interested :) [/QUOTE]
