A great lens when you need a light weight telephoto

Re: A great lens when you need a light weight telephoto

I bought my 200mm f2.8 when it was on sale a few years ago. I didn't expect to use it much because I do have the 70-200mm f2.8 II. I eventually realized that in most situations I'm always shooting at 200mm anyway, so this lens has been getting more use than the heavy zoom.

In the 80's I shot high school sports with an FD 200mm f2.8 so this might have influenced me.
