Hello! Got a good price on a used old but nice looking 80-200 L 2.8. 450GBP. Have you guys any experience with this lense? How it compares to 70-200 L 2.8 version 1 and 2?
Cheers :)

Snap it up quick, it is known as the Magic Drainpipe! They don't come up for sale all that often.

Looks like a bargain if the price is right, the reviews are excellent plus it is a black L lens.Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Canon RF 100-500mm f4.5-7.1L, Canon RF 24-105mm f4L

I bought the canon EF 70-200 4.0L IS instead, fantastic little lens, very happy with it so far. However having second thoughts. The 70-200 2.8L IS II speaks louder to my vanity :)Comment
