Here's another shot - cropped from the full image: Take a look, and you might be able to make something like this: Here's a squirrel shot, taken with the lens and the D200: You can use a shooter's support to steady the camera and lens - check out any of the outdoor or hunting websites - far cheaper and faster to work with than the Kirk adapter. I have used the push-pull version of the AF Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8 ED lens for many years, on a range of cameras from the F4S to the D200. So I guess I'll be abandoning my canon for a while and start exploring the world of Nikon :)īTW does anyone have sample of photos taken with D200 and AF Zoom-NIKKOR 80-200mm f/2.8D ED? thank you He used them on his old film camera Nikon F501. but my friend gave me this lens and 4 other AF nikkor lenses. I own a canon camera and few canon lenses. if I set it under 1/200th, the Image is a little bit blurry (without tripod). and you were right about the shutter speed. I ended up buying the D200 so I can use this lens.

I have a friend who is a pro sports shooter and he uses that lens allt he time, and hates image stabilization. That lens is so fast, just keep the shutter speed up around 1/500th and you won t even miss image stabilization. Is your subject in motion? If so, I recommend adding a SideKick gimbel mount. If you are looking at the 80-200mm, there is a tripod mount on the barrel to minimize stress on the mount. I know that there is a company in the US that used to make one. I'm looking for a tripod bracket to lessen the strain on the lens mount of the camera.Īnyone got an idea. You need a very steady hand at speeds slower than 200sec if you don't use a tripod. Great friend by the way, where can I get me one of those?!?!?!Ĭool, now you got a 120 - 300 2.8 zoom, I ahve one it works great.īeen using the push pull version of this lens on a number of different bodies for the last 20 years.
