Đánh giá nikkor 80-200 ed iv năm 2024
The Nikkor’s 80-200 mm performance, as far as the picture resolution is concerned, is similar to its main competitor – the Sigma 70-200 f/2.8. The Nikkor has quite consistent and very good performance in the 80 to 135 mm focal length range and has a noticeable quality decrease at the 200 mm focal length. Sigma’s advantage is definitely the smaller disproportion between the maximum aperture and the sharpest diaphragms. The Nikkor’s advantage is a slightly smaller difference between the focal lengths. Essentially, the two competitors score a high quality tie in this category. Show The high-class varifocal lenses in the middle of the frame can be serious competition for fixed focal length lenses. The situation at the edge of the frame is worse, and this is where we really see the instrument’s performance. The Nikkor is better than the Sigma in this category, which only at 70 mm focal length had perfect results (but only at the maximum aperture) and could be a threat to the Nikkor. After stopping down the lens, the Nikkor is the clear winner. At 135 mm focal length the Nikkor performs much better since its sharpness in the edge of the frame is almost the same as in the middle of the frame. At 200 mm focal length, both lenses have similarly average results.

(From Nikon lens literature) Superb telephoto-zoom lens for sports and nature photography. 3 ED glass elements for high resolution and high contrast even at maximum apertures. Maintains fast f/2.8 aperture throughout zoom range. Test Notes This 80-200mm f/2.8D ED AF is just the latest in a long line of Nikkor lenses covering this focal length range, stretching back to 1982. This latest version was first sold in 1997, and continues unchanged to this day. It has to some extent been supplanted by the Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 VR lens, which we have also tested. Fast-focusing and able to really drop out the background with its wide f/2.8 maximum aperture, the 80-200 f/2.8 has long been a favorite of sports and nature shooters, but is a great choice for any Nikon shooter interested in a high-quality, wide-aperture telephoto zoom lens. Sharpness Given this lens' long-standing reputation for performance, we were a bit surprised that it wasn't a bit sharper wide open across its focal length range. Wide open, it was quite sharp from 80-135mm, but softened markedly at 200mm. Stopping down to f/4 improved sharpness across the board, but the blur profile at 200mm was still somewhat lopsided. (This was a little reminiscent of what we saw in our initial sample of the Nikkor 12-24mm ultra-wide zoom, apparently an issue with earlier production of that lens. - We'll ask Nikon for another sample of the 80-200mm f/2.8, so we can see if the softness at 200mm is universal or an issue with the particular (brand new) sample we tested here.) Diffraction limiting set in on our D200 test body at about f/16, but wasn't too bad even at the f/22 minimum aperture. Chromatic Aberration If we were slightly under-impressed with this lens' sharpness at 200mm, we were very impressed with its chromatic aberration, particularly at middle focal lengths. At the two ends of its focal length range, the Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8D shows fairly typical amounts of CA, with maximum values on the order of 3/100 frame height, and average values about half that. At the in-between focal lengths of 105mm and 135mm though, its chromatic aberration was about the lowest of any lens we've measured to date, a really impressive performance. Shading ("Vignetting") Due in part to our testing it on a sub-frame DSLR (At least as of this writing, Nikon makes no full-frame DSLR cameras), shading was very low, reaching a maximum of 0.33 EV wide open at 200mm. At all other focal lengths and apertures, the light falloff was less than 0.2 EV, and at f/4, never rose above 0.14. Distortion Again due in part to the sub-frame sensor of the D200, the 80-200mm f/2.8 showed relatively little geometric distortion, ranging from a miniscule amount of barrel distortion at 80mm to a noticeable 0.3% pincushion at 200mm. It's important to note though, that the average distortion remains quite low, even at 200mm. This indicates that the distortion is limited to the outer edges and corners of the frame, not extending very far into the image area itself. Focus Operation The 80-200mm f/2.8 focus quickly and precisely. The focus motor makes a quiet whirring noise (sort of a soft "zeep" sound). It's not as quiet as lenses with ultrasonic motors, but isn't bad, and shouldn't be an issue in any but the most hushed environments. You can switch to manual focusing via a ring on the lens' body, and in fact must do so: Switching the camera body's AF switch to manual just disables the camera's AF drive, it doesn't free up the lens elements to permit manual adjustment. The manual focus ring operates smoothly, and has enough travel to permit accurate focus setting by hand, unlike some lenses designed more exclusively for AF operation. In either auto or manual focusing modes, a switch at the front of the lens barrel can be used to limit close-focusing to about 3 meters (a bit more than 10 feet), to reduce the range the camera (or you) will have to hunt over to find the subject. Because it's an Internal Focusing lens, the front element of the lens doesn't rotate as you focus, nor does the lens change in length. Image Stabilization This is not an image-stabilized lens. See the aforementioned Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 VR for a similar optic with image stabilization capability. Build Quality and Handling This is a very solid lens. Picking it up, the first words that came to mind were "built like a tank." The lens barrel is coated with a very fine black wrinkle finish, and the zoom and focus rings are ribbed rubber. (A subtle point is that the focus ring has only 3 longitudinal segments in each rib, while the zoom ring has 7. I wonder if that was a deliberate choice, to give some tactile feedback as to which ring you were gripping, or whether it was simply a cosmetic decision?) The lens has a tripod mount attached to a rotating ring near the base of the lens. The ring can be rotated through 270 degrees, and can be locked in any position with a small knob. With a lightweight DSLR mounted on the lens, the combination is slightly front-heavy, while a heavy body like the D2Xs produces a slightly back-heavy assembly. In either case, the tripod mount is a great feature, taking a lot of load off the cameras lens mount. The lens comes standard with a very nice leather carrying case and a strap for carrying it, but (somewhat surprisingly) doesn't include a lens hood. The matching hood is Nikon part number HB-7, and can be found online for about $30. Summary We were a little surprised to see the 80-200mm to be as soft as it was wide open at 200mm (a characteristic it shares with the 70-200mm f/2.8 VR optic), but at shorter focal lengths is quite sharp, and gets extremely sharp when you stop it down to f/4. Build quality and handling are excellent, making it easily worth it's roughly $900 online price. (Keep your eyes peeled around holiday times too, this lens is one that Nikon seems to offer a rebate on almost annually.) All in all, a fine lens for anyone wanting a fast mid-range telephoto zoom for their Nikon-mount DSLR.

10 out of 10 pointsand recommended by langier (11 reviews) Great for film and a bargain compared to the 70-200 Not quite the 70-200 This is my second version of this lens. I had the original AF version (one-touch) and replaced it with newer a number of years ago. For film, this is an excellent lens. With digital, not quite as nice but more than adequate. If you can't afford the 70-200 VR, this is a nice lens to have for telephoto shooting. It is rugged and well constructed and fairly sharp throughout its range. On film, there is a slight vignetting on the corners. Digital doesn't seem to be affected by the vignetting and is pretty well minimized. I still have this lens as a back-up and still use it occasionally. I prefer the 70-200 for its slightly wider range on digital, but this lens does not disappoint. |
