Telephoto Zoom for Sports and Portraits

This Nikon AF FX NIKKOR 80-200mm f/2.8D ED lens delivers a 2.5x zoom range covering 80 to 200mm. It is built for photographers who need a fast, constant f/2.8 aperture across the full focal length for sports, portraits and nature work. The screw-drive autofocus relies on a compatible camera body motor. It fits FX, DX and 35mm film formats.

Constant f/2.8 Aperture and ED Glass

The maximum aperture stays at f/2.8 from 80mm through to 200mm, giving consistent exposure and depth-of-field control while zooming. Nine diaphragm blades produce rounded background highlights. Extra-low Dispersion glass elements suppress chromatic aberration for high-resolution, high-contrast results even at the widest aperture. Nikon Super Integrated Coating reduces flare and ghosting.

Upgrade from Variable-Aperture Zooms

This lens replaces slower variable-aperture telephoto zooms that lose light at the long end. The jump is worth it when you need constant f/2.8 brightness for indoor sports, stage work or shallow depth of field throughout the zoom range. It is not for photographers who require internal focus motors for silent video autofocus or vibration reduction.

Questions about this item

Will the screw-drive autofocus work on my older Nikon body that lacks a built-in motor?

Yes, the lens uses the camera's screw drive, so it autofocuses on any Nikon DSLR that provides the mechanical coupling.

How can I check that the nine-blade diaphragm is operating smoothly after I mount the lens?

Stop the aperture down from f/2.8 toward the minimum setting and watch the iris; the nine blades should form a near-circle at each step.

Does the box include a tripod collar or do I need to buy one separately for the 80-200mm zoom?

The supplied items are the lens, front and rear caps, and a hood; a tripod collar is not included and must be purchased separately.
