--G type will only "work" with newer type cameras, (post 1995) on older cameras, not all metering will work. But you will not have a problem with the apt. coming unlocked. (I hear that the new 70-200 VR will be type G, so is this the new wave??)Regards,

Also, you can't use G-lenses with some of Nikon's accessories, such as their "dumb" extension tubes. You need the Kenko AF tubes which are much inferior in build quality and reliability.Technically, G type just means it has no aperture ring on the lens.
That saves cost and weight.
For some older (film) cameras, without a ring, you can't
realistically use the lens. So if you have or expect to get a
(used) film body, consider that.
The rest of the bodies (I think including the D1x) can either use
the camera's aperture adjustment or the lens' one, and some prefer
to use the one on the lens. So there may be a preference thing.
so would a 80-200-d lens be a better quality lens then the new 70-200 g?Also, you can't use G-lenses with some of Nikon's accessories, suchTechnically, G type just means it has no aperture ring on the lens.
