Nikon 70-200mm f4 G VRIII Next week ;)


nice, thx. will check it out
 

Got me the lens here in KL. I did not venture deeper, so settled for an equivalent of $1550 at a shop in KLCC. Enjoying it now... did not know it was out until I saw it at the Nikon showroom in KLCC itself. A few shops away and The lady offered me the price. Stopped me from getting the 80-200 or sigma 70-200... i believe one can get at a better price in Bukit Bintang. Was in Penang last week too, should have looked for it there.
 

At last my unused TC20EII can be made to use. The focussing is not that bad with the TC. Enjoying the lens...
 

another review from btobey.com
compared to 70-200VR2 and 200mm F2

its very encouraging!
 

Got my copy today.. Very happy and satisfied with the performance..... =)
 

My gosh...so tempting. Seeing the 1/25 n 1/30 handheld pics on FM...must...stop...itch...
 

Was rent and tried for 3 days and very happy with weight, performance and it's suit my shooting style. Confirm this will be my first purchase in 2013!

Took the lens to RWS marine life park's S.E.A Aquarium last week to give it a go. Not the best lens for such photography but I jsut want to see how it handles low light(VR and AF speed) etc...
Here are some shots.. I have to say.. this lens is amazing!!!! It was really very crowded and I could not get close enough to the tanks most of the time - This lens save the day as I could focus from far(>1m++ away) in very low light.
