I have one of these -- I don't recall anymore if mine is the first or second version. Like almost all Nikkor 80-200/4.5s, mine is prone to zoom collar slippage -- a lot -- but that doesn't really bother me. I've owned mine for -- well, probably around 27 year or so. The reason why I've kept it is because it is a solid performer -- as your photos show very clearly. |
Yes - mine is the same.
It is impossible to hold focal length if it is pointed down.
Optically, it is wonderful in spite of the zoom creep - in this case probably should be called zoom-run!
