[QUOTE="Elliot87, post: 430986, member: 25183"] Sadly both the old and new versions of this lens are beyond my budget at the moment. I've been looking at older glass on ebay but know next to nothing about a lot of them. I came across a [SIZE=1][FONT=arial][COLOR=#333333][B][SIZE=2]Nikkor 300mm f4.5, AI lens,[/SIZE] Nikon F series[/B][/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE], the description says it "[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Arial]It takes great pictures on digital cameras with appropriate adapter". [/FONT][/COLOR]I don't know what it means by an appropriate adapter so was hoping someone could enlighten me? [ATTACH=CONFIG]146494._xfImport[/ATTACH] I don't care about not having metering, autofocus etc. I'm just looking for something slightly faster and perhaps with better IQ than my Tamron 70-300. MY wife also has a F80/N80 SLR which I borrow from time to time, would this lens function better on this than my D3200? Thanks for any advice offered and apologies for posting here if its not appropriate, just didn't think it warranted its own thread. [/QUOTE]
