Bought for my wife for her birthday, she acted like I gave her a child. Like she told me you are only as good as your tools. She hasn't used yet but based on previous reviews I don't think she'll be disappointed.

If you’re looking for the best telephoto lense for a full frame camera then look no further. Attached to my d850 it works perfectly. Definitely a bit heavier but worth the quality. Fast focus and crystal clear pictures.

Favorite Nikon Lens

Upside: Favorite lens….by far delivers my favorite boca look.
Downside: Since moving to VR2 I have had more issues in lens failure and repair. The old adage was that glass lasts forever but the mechanics of these Nikon lens 70-200 and 24-70 has been quite a bit of sending back for motor issues and ultimately just buying new copies (we shoot high volume and prefer to just replace)

My go to lens for the most part. Great for outdoor and portraiture and other types of photography as well. Had a slight issue w/ the VR making clicking sounds a while back but it seems to have had fixed itself or something.

Waited a long time for Nikon to introduce this new version 70-200 F2.8 FL lens. It's not cheap a bit pricey, but if you can afford it, go for it!! Sharpness is fantastic, bokeh amazing! Truly worth every penny!!!

Yes it’s expensive but worth it. Auto focus is faster compared to my 300mm prime. Image quality is great. I prefer the zoom/focus position swap, easy for me to reach both while using tripod foot as support.

I thought the reviews might stand a chance of being overrated. They are not. From the get-go the Nikon 70-200 f/2.8 FL is the finest lens I have ever mounted on a camera. I am so happy with my purchase.

I love this lens, it's very good in low light. But, it's heavy a lot of glass. The images are worth the extra weight. Yes, it cost more than the old version, and it's worth it. This is good gear.

I get really crisp images from my Nikon d850 with this lens. This is not a budget lens, you get what you pay for. Loves this lens.
