Identification

These frames record only the lens's focal length and maximum aperture (80-200mm f/2.8), not its model, so the specific version cannot be determined from the photos alone.

Frames in this group that also carry a Nikon lens ID number elsewhere were assigned to their exact lens. Lens ID numbers seen here, and the lens each one indicates:

Lens indicated by IDFrames
AF Zoom-Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8D ED / Tokina AT-X 828 AF PRO (AF 80-200mm f/2.8)44

Versions confirmed in other frames. Some frames recorded with these same specifications also carry a Nikon lens ID number that identifies the exact lens. Those frames are counted on that lens's own page:

Lens confirmed by lens IDFrames
AF Zoom-Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8D ED330
AF-S Zoom-Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8D IF-ED126

The 12,709 frames on this page carry no lens ID, so their version is unknown. They should not be assumed to split in the same proportions.

  • AF Zoom-Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8 ED
  • AF Zoom-Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8D ED
