Nikon AF NIKKOR 80-200mm f/2.8 D ED Macro Push/Pull Autofocus Lens {77}
$0.00-$0.00
Introduced in 1992, the Nikon Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8 D Macro ED (Nikon USA model number 1985) updated the tried and true Nikon Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8 Macro ED. New features include D type distance information, simplified focus limit switch, simplified aperture lock switch, and bayonet lens hood mounting. Being 'D Type' the lens communicates distance information to compatible cameras (N90 and later 35mm film cameras and Nikon Digital SLR bodies). Film cameras utilizing the lens distance information can more accurately meter flash exposures, distance information is even more important for accurate i-TTL metering on Nikon digital cameras. The push pull design is most popular with photographers comfortable hand holding. While autofocus capable (on Nikon bodies with built-in focus motor) , it's single ring push pull zoom and focus design makes it one of the best zoom options available for a high quality lens for manual focus Nikon 35mm film cameras.
This lens was replaced in 1997 by a model with the same name, similar optics, and a new two touch (separate zoom and focus rings) mechanical design, with integral tripod mount (Nikon USA model number 1986). Model 1985 remains popular as a well made pro grade versatile fast aperture zoom lens that delivers high quality images, now available at a significant cost savings compared to newer options
