George,

Definately not for the faint at heart. It's amazing watching some of the
world's greatest athletes perform. Or in this instance, practice.

Ken,

I second that. The 80-200/4 is the only zoom I own. I'd hate to be without
it. I posted these shots the other day. All five were taken with the
80-200/4 two weeks ago.

Unless you need the speed, take a look at the 80-200 f4. It is a truly 
amazing lens and inexpensive (for Leica)
