Now the best part, it allows an old work horse like the D300 be relevant again. The low light and fast action performance of the 70-200mm f2.8 FL ED VR gives new life to older generation bodies. Although the D500 combined with this lens is an unrivaled combo, when working in the bush I couple a 200-400 f4 to the D500 and the 70-200 to a D300.
-Nikon 24-70mm 2.8, Nikon 14-24mm 2.8, Nikon 70-200mm 2.8 vr2-Nikon 105mm f2 DC, Nikon 135mm f2 DC, and 50mm 1.4 G.-Tamron 90mm 2.8 Macro and Tamron 180mm 3.5 Macro-Nikon tc 1.4x II, Nikon tc 2.0x III Ok, now the 200mm F2 Vr2! Needless to say that the 200mm F2 is sharper than any of the lenses i listed above.
The Nikon 70-200 f2.8 is up there with the best of the best lenses for bokeh. Who is the Nikon 70 200mm VR II for? Because of the long focal length possibilities, the Nikon 70-200 VR II should probably be in your bag if you shoot Nikon and you do portraits. The Nikkor 70-200 also is really good for sports photography. Nikon 70-300mm VR. OVERALL. It performs better than any of the previous 70-300mm lenses. This is the lens to get if your subjects hold still. If you need to shoot moving things in lower light, get the faster 80-200mm f/2.8 AF-D instead. If size, weight and cost are no object (they are for me), get the 70-200mm VR or 70-200mm f/2.8 VR II.
