70-200 F2.8 for use with D750. Sep 16, 2018. I tend to shoot small events for friends and family and get paid as "Gift" for providing good memories. I used this to update my kit. Currently I own a D750 and use it with Tamron 24-70 VC and Tamron 70-300 f4-5.6 VC. Both lenses have been excellent for what I do and am in love with th telephoto range. The Nikon Z 70-180mm f2.8 is a small and light telephoto zoom with a constant f2.8 aperture and corrected for full-frame sensors. It produces pretty good image quality including a soft Bokeh and very usable close-up performance in a package that is around 40% cheaper, 25% shorter, and 45% lighter than Nikon’s Z 70-200mm f2.8 VR S. I didn't find this too troubling, but some posters/users couldn't get over it. AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8E FL ED VR - this is the latest and greatest. The barrel is the shortest, it's a bit lighter the the VRII, and a lot sharper, everywhere. Currently the best 70-200 money can buy, and the most expensive. I currently use this lens on a Nikon D300 body. So this review is based on D300 / 24-70mm combo. I own Nikon's pro glasses like 17-35 f2.8, 70-200 f2.8, 17-55 f2.8, 50 f1.4, 12-24 f4, etc Here is the DC compatibility for your reference (although this lens isn't listed here). Lens Rentals tested the Sigma at 200mm wide open and it was sharper than the Tamron VC. Note that the Tamron VC is regarded as a sharper lens and performs better than the Sigma at 70mm. Here is the Lens Rentals 200mm shootout. . The extremely sparse design of the 70-180mm f/2.8 with no useful buttons, switches, or extra command dials is very off-putting. At least the build quality is good, but even then, I’d definitely trust Nikon’s 70-200mm f/2.8 S more in a monsoon. Clearly, image quality isn’t the only reason why Nikon’s f/2.8 S-line zooms cost significantly Nikon F5, Nikkor AF 80-200mm/2.8 D at close to 200mm. Click on image for larger version. 6. It is quite a large lens for 80-200. I once had a cheap Nikkor AF 70-210 (I think it was 210), and this one is way heavier (1300g) and bigger over all, though still is nice to hold. It balances good in the hands with the F5 attached. 7. As this image quality comparison shows, the 70-200 OS's predecessor, the Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 EX DG HSM II Macro Lens, performs better at f/2.8 and f/4 except at 200mm where the OS version holds a slight advantage. Expect a modest amount of CA (Chromatic Aberration) in full frame corners at 70mm f/2.8. Sigma’s current 70-200mm f/2.8 has been on the market since 2010, and with Nikon (2016), Canon (2018), and Tamron (2017) having recently released updated versions of their lenses, Sigma’s Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8E FL VR Image Samples NIKON D810 + 70-200mm f/2.8 @ 160mm, ISO 1000, 1/320, f/4.0 NIKON D810 + 70-200mm f/2.8 @ 190mm, ISO 400, 1/500, f/10.0 NIKON D810 + 70-200mm f/2.8 @ 70mm, ISO 140, 1/500, f/9.0 NIKON D810 + 70-200mm f/2.8 @ 92mm, ISO 640, 1/500, f/16.0 NIKON D810 + 70-200mm f/2.8 @ 95mm, ISO 160, 1/500, f/8.0 NIKON
