I could be happier with my 80-200mm f/2.8 ED. I've been waiting quite patiently for Nikon to release an updated version of their f/2.8 telephoto zoom.
The telephoto 2.8 zooms are updated about every 5-6 years:
1982
1988 (6 years)
1993 (5 years)
1997 (5 years)
2003 ( 6 years)
2009 (6 years)

I was hopeful they would release something in 2015 but didn't seem to be the case. It's 2016 now and it's coming to 7 years since the last update. -- Do you think now is our lucky year? Or perhaps the 70-200 f/4 VR our only telephoto update ... ?
