New lens!

Last March I promised myself a new lens once I achieved my first fitness goal. I'm only 80% of where I want to be, but my upcoming trip to Iceland pushed me to get the lens sooner. So last night I bought the latest and last lens. It is the Nikkor AF 80-200 f/2.8D ED. I had planned to get the newer AF-S VR 70-200mm f/2.8G IF ED but settled for the older model after complications with an eBay seller. The lenses are optically similar with differences being in the vibration reduction (VR) technology and silent focussing. Tonight I will give it a test run. All I need now is a larger camera bag to hold all this equipment!
