I did buy 3. But not all at once. I've had a weird relationship with the 200-400mm vr. I bought my first one new, in about 2010. It lived up to it's reputation. Superb in every aspect. fast focus, sharp, great being able to zoom. The lot. But I had a weak moment and sold it to a friend.

Consistent Output; Quick Focus; Sharp Focus; Strong Construction

WOW! What a lens. Sharp from corner to corner at all zoom lengths. This is a HEAVY pro level lens. Always use it on a strong tripod or with a monopod. You put the camera on the lens, not the other way around.

The price at on this site was 400 less than anyone else

Sharp as a TACK; Fast Focus

none

Totally agree with Lisa Osorio. Muneeb Qadar - a digital marketer at Dubai Monsters recently purchased the camera and thought of the same. This camera is the ultimate dream for new photographers. If you're willing to put your step in this profession, you can start with this camera.

The good part is; I found the lens compatible with super telephoto zoom lens

One con I found is that Nikkor 200-400mm f/4G ED VR II is quite heavy for my pocket

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Consistent Output; Durable; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Nice Bokeh; Rugged; Strong Construction

Heavy

Fantastic lens but little bit pricey

Nikon's flagship super-telephoto zoom now sports the latest generation Vibration Reduction system and Nikon's Nano Crystal lens coating. Here Gary Wolstenholme puts it through its paces.

Superb build quality; Excellent resolution; especially when stopped down; Vibration Reduction; Supplied case; Speed and accuracy of AF; Minimum Focus Distance of 2 metres

While I hope to create a full Nikon 200-400mm f/4G AF-S VR II Lens, my first priority is to include results from this lens in the lens comparison tools available on the site. This page currently exists because it is required by the database and content management systems for me to post information...

The Nikon AF-S 200-400mm f/4 has been a favorite lens among wildlife photographers. Back in the 1980's, Nikon had a manual-focus AI-S version that was in production for 5 years (1983 to 1988). Originally it was sold in the $3000 range (that was, of course, 1980 dollars).

Priced at ￡6200, Nikon's latest super-telephoto zoom is a serious bit of kit, with a serious price tag.
