Subject: Comments on 80-200/4 R lens

Hello Luggers,

I just want to ask any of you who have used the 80-200/4 vario elmar R lens ?
How is its optical performance ? I heard that it can match with the very
best lenses with fix focal lengths ? how does it do at max aperture at
various focal lengths esp. at 200mm ?
Is this a good substitute to the 70-180/2.8 R lens ?

Also how is the balance and handling when attached to R6.2, R7 or R8 ?

Best regards

Ferdinand
