Hi Guys,
I'm looking for a telephoto lens for my D90, I am tossing up between the Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8 and the 70-200mm f/2.8. You can pick up the 80-200mm f/2.8 for relatively cheap these days however I have only used the old 'push-pull' zoom one and the auto-focus is unbelievably slow. I'm also still finding it hard to spend ~$3,000 for the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8, how does it compare to the Sigma has anyone got either?
Cheers
PS: I'd be using it for Wakeboarding and waterskiing so a quick autofocus would be preferable but not entirely necessary as the skiier is the same distance from the boat at all times.
