Nikon 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D AF VR ED

For those of you who want some great range on outdoor shooting, this lens may be right for you. It's certainly not the kind of quality that the Nikon 200-400 f/4 VR is but this lens is easy to carry and handhold. It does have some downsides: it doesn't focus very quickly and the zoom ring is not super smooth. On the other hand, the image quality is quite good.
