Still a very good one with a slight weakness regarding the bokeh rendering:

In case anybody is interested: the tested sample is for sale.



I usually wouldn't post a for sale ad here, especially not for lenses I have reviewed myself. However, since Klaus did the review hopefully no one seriously considers the tests to be influenced by my intention to sell the lens <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />



The lens has been purchased new in February 2011, so it is still under warranty. It has not seen much use and is in very good condition, as the images in the review show.



Comes with all accessories and box for 890 EUR shipped (insured) anywhere in the European Union. No PayPal, only wire transfer.



If interested, please send me a PN or email (adress is on [url="http://www.opticallimits.com/impressum"]this[/url] page).

I thought you were about to give a "HR"

I really like the white colour tele and I don't understand why Nikon stopped producing white (or grey) color 70-200s.

Wish I needed a 70-200/2.8 lens. Doubt that will ever have the chance to buy such a precisely known quantity of anything ever again, be it new or used.

Yeah, but the bokeh stopped me from doing so.

No, only the non-IS and the new IS II. The initial IS version is discontinued.

P.S.: the lens is sold.
