Being a Canon shooter, I don't have one. Looking at the specs:

I would almost recommend you just slap a TC-14B onto your Nikkor 80-200mm, f2.8. You will have a similar range (a little less convenient) and faster aperture at the long end. You won't have VR, but you will save some serious cash, and I think have around the same image quality through the range.
