I'll be keeping my D810 also. I  can't afford to be buying a new camera every other year (although Nikon does its best to tempt us!)   Can't that magenta shift be easily neutralized in Lightroom?

I just used one of my extra solar sunglasses since I didnt have anything else other than my ND filters, which everyone said not to use.  My pictures came out pretty well.  I just didnt see much ...

I think I'm having the same issue with my D810.  On my very first trip to the Pacific northwest last week, while shooting along the Washington coast I suddenly got the Err message and the ...

Just following up on this thread I started a few weeks ago.  I ended up ordering an EX+ rated 70-200 f4 from KEH.  I fee like I got a really good price for such a professional lens as it was $819 ...

Mine broke as well after about 10 years.  For a couple years I just used a little black electrical tape to hold it in AF mode.  But then I decided to get it fixed by APS.  I think the repair was ...

I have the 16-35vr for my D810, and find it to be an outstanding landscape lens. It is very sharp and at it's best from 16-24mm, but somewhat soft at 35mm.  I also recently picked up a 70-200mm at ...

Most of the time.

I know this is an old post but i have the very same issue with a Vello Freewave remote I bought for my Nikon D810.  It worked fine for a couple weeks then it would start locking up the camera and ...

I've owned both versions, previously the 1.8D, until I dropped and lost it over an embankment, then replaced it with the 1.8G.  To me, the D seemed a little sharper than the G when stopped down to ...

Last week as I was getting ready to mount my D810 & 80-200 2.8d lens on my tripod, I didn't have it secured and it flopped off the tripod onto the ground.  Luckily, it landed on soft grass and not ...

Thanks.  And I may eventually. I see the Vello sells for $49, and has good reviews.

Thanks for all the great input from everyone that helped me make a decision.  I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a used 70-200 f4 from KEH yesterday!   I've never bought from them and in fact ...

What I like about the collar is the ease in changing orientation and making fine adjustments.  However the one downside is when I just want to switch out lenses when the camera is on the tripod. ...

Thanks Bill.   Do you have a tripod collar for your 70-200 f4?  The collar is something I really appreciate on my 80-200.  Other than the fact I managed to not get it secured to my ballhead this ...

Thanks very much for the comparisons.  Great information.  While I'll probably keep the 80-200 for now, I can't stop looking at used 70-200 f4s.  I really don't think the new 70-300 will be as ...

Mike, I mostly shoot from a tripod, however having VR does give more flexibility especially when hiking and not wanting to bring a tripod along.   Something I've been considering in making my ...

Thanks.  I do like having f2.8, not so much for shooting at that aperture, but for the brighter viewfinder image and my aging eyes.

Thanks.  From everything I've read the 70-200 is a really nice lens.

Thanks.  Kind of leaning towards just sticking with  my 80-200 then.  Another factor is the newly announced 70-300, although it sounds like it has some limitations on a D810 in terms of compatibility.

For an upcoming trip (and beyond) i'm strongly considering replacing my heavy 2.8 two-ring with a good used 70-200 f4, but am still a little on the fence.  For anyone who has moved to the lighter ...
