Picked up a mint condition Nikon 70-200 2.8 VR today!! The guy wanted $1300 but I got him down to $1200. Good deal?? He says he only shot about 1000 images with it... after he bought it new 3-4 years ago. He said he is a wildlife shooter and just paid like $5600 for a 200-400 lens. Yikes. He seemed like an EXTREMELY honest and good person. Anyway, I am super happy that I got the lens and just thought I'd share. I have been wanting one and I thought it was gonna be awhile yet. Nope!!! :D

    Thanks, Ziggy. thumb.gif I knew I had to have one. I wish I had one the other night instead of my 18-200. That's all I own... and a 35mm 1.8. Now I have a very VERY good lens. :D I think $1300 was a good price. I do wish I had the new VRII but it was out of reach. This will be great for me though.

    Holy crap this thing makes the 18-200 look bad. Time to get a pro wide angle!!
