180 f/2.8 returns to my bag.

After selling my 180 2.8 one year ago and buying a 70-200vr I found I missed the 180 so much I decided to get another and sell the Nikon 70-200vr which was a terrific lens but just not for me. I sold the 70-200 and just last week bought a used/like-new 180 f/2.8D for $450. This lens used has to be the best value of all Nikon lenses. I'll never sell it again. I find it perfect for shooting dogs (my passion). It is sharp at f/2.8 and provides a beautiful bokeh. On my D300 I can carry it all day without getting the shakes. Welcome back 180!

The photo below was taken this week with a D300.
