I bought this lens to use at the rink for Hockey and Figure Skating. The results are really impressive. Hand holding this baby is a bit hit and miss, you really need a monopod. The auto focus is fast and the images are sharp. If you want to get professional results this lens is a must have.

This is the s***! I've had a Canon EF 80-200/2.8L and a Sigma EX 70-200/2.8 HSM previous to this lens and it kicks the other lenses butts. Hard. It's sharp, it's fast and it's built like a Abrams M1 tank. What more could you ask for The A/M-ring is made of plastic and is easy to break.
Pros:
- Sharp
- fast
- color rendering (is that the correct expression
Cons:
- Plastic A/M-ring

Awesome
This is a great lens. Sure it is heavy, but that is why I bought a monopod. Great results! I take it with me when I go on walks along the river. I use it at weddings to get "the shot" without being seen. I have used it my son's basketball games and will use it during baseball this summer.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Durable
- Easily Interchangeable
- Rugged
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Heavy

Solid and reliable work horse that delivers the goods!
The 80-200 f2.8D is a great solid reliable and high performance lens. It is optically comparable to the first series 70-200 f2.8 VR, so the decision comes down to your need for image stabilization and instant manual focus overide.

My Second One
I love this lens. I have been used an older Nikkor 80-200 F2.8 (push-pull) since many years ago. Nikon continued bringing top quality products. This lens is a good companion to my D7000.

fast, sharp, great for low lights condition,
This lens is great,, it is fast and sharp,, I loved the push and pull zoom,, although the lens is old,, but it was a new experience for me and loved it,, I can zoom in or out fast than a rotating ring,,, its only problems are it's weight and it does not have a tripod mount collar,,, otherwise it is

it working fine for time being
As mentioned by others, little heavy, but definitely built to last! Well mostly; anyway, known problem with the af ring splitting (which was broken on the 2nd hand one i got upon arrival) but i made a repair for now, it working fine for time being...
