80-200mm f/2.8 ED AF Zoom-Nikkor

Overview

Nikon has manufactured 9 different zoom lenses with a focal-length range of 80 to 200 mm range for its F-mount 35mm film camera or its full-frame DSLR lineup:

  • f/4.5 MK-I (discontinued)
  • f/4.5 MK-II (discontinued)
  • f/4.0 AI-S (discontinued)
  • f/2.8 ED AI-S (discontinued)
  • f/2.8D ED AF (discontinued)
  • f/2.8D ED AF II (discontinued)
  • f/2.8D ED AF III (discontinued) [1]
  • f/4.5-5.6D AF (discontinued)
  • f/2.8D IF-ED AF-S (discontinued) [2]

All models are out of production, including the latest "AF-S 80-200mm f/2.8D IF-ED".[2] Instead, Nikon has released new lens in this focal length, such as AF-S VR 70-200mm f/2.8G lens in 2003.[3] In which, IF stand for Internal focusing while VR stand for Nikon's anti-vibration system, while the letter G behind the F number stand for the absence of aperture control on the lens (all G lens are D lens). To sum up, the new 70-200mm Nikon F-mount lens are not directly comparable to its older sister variant.

Generally, most Nikon F-mount 80-200mm lens have a larger maximum aperture than sister range Nikon F 70-210mm lens.
