[QUOTE="pendennis, post: 648383, member: 42413"] [b]Re: Nikon 80-200 f2.8[/b] Horses for different courses. The 80-400 gives a lot of range in that it has 80-200, but the 200-500 has it at the long end. I use the 500mm setting far more often than 80-200 on the 80-400. I like the fact that the 80-400 will work with my F6, because it's a "G" and compatible. The 200-500 has the electromagnetic aperture, and isn't compatible with any of my film cameras; a small dislike, though. The optical performance is weighed in favor of the 200-500, just based on my usage and observations. I have no empirical data to support this, though. [/QUOTE]
