Can I use this lense with my Nikon D80? Can I use it for my Nikon D80?

I bought this lense for my Nikon D90 along with the approriate adapter. I have been exceptionally pleased and only bought it after several months of research visiting and participating in a number of user forums and finally finding it used on Amazone for $200 plus shipping. What I found was that most of the "experts" on both Nikon and user forums univerally blasted this lense but had never used it or even touched it. Finally, on a Canon forum, an expert put it to a test and got some really sharp photos. The Opteka website also has a video with some excellent shots with this lense. Those tests by the Canon guy convinced me that it was a worthwhile investment at $200. You don't see many used Opteka lenses on Amazon or Ebay. That tells me that those who have bought them must be happy with them. Further, when I bought my lense several months ago, the new prices for the Opteka were in the $230 to $270 range. They are now approaching $300. If the law of supply and demand is at work it must mean that this lense is quite popular and the dealers can get these kinds of prices. I would recommend this lense for a Nikon photographer who doesn't want to make a substantial investment of thousands of dollars for a long lense. But you must understand that the lense MUST be shot on a tripod, preferably with a remote shutter release or a self timer.

Correct. The lens autofocus will work normally on D800, but other than having a smaller photo on the FX sensor, there will be considerable vignetting which will make you eventually not use it on D800...

Yes, the lens will work with the D80. It is not a particularly fast lens, so you would need lots of light for sporting shots. Daytime it would probably be fine, but even under stadium lights at night, you are likely to get some soft shots.

Sorry but don't know. I bough mine for a D80 and a D3100. You have a VERY nice lens!

My understanding is that the lens is compatible with all Nikon Digital camera bodies. I use it with a D90, D800 and D3200. You can check the Nikon site for compatibility. It's a great lens!

I don't believe so. This lens does not fit my d80. Perhaps if you get a special adapter?

Yes it should work just fine! As long as your camera has the fine tuning ability and to the best of my knowledge all of the higher end nikons have that ability.... My d7000 has it... Works great. Made a nice difference in a couple of my lens's.

Sorry, I don't own a D80, I am using this as my travel piece with my D600, and it works very well! Though it does take a bit longer to recharge the flash in between shots.

It works with my D800 and for all I know all Nikon lenses, adapters work with all Nikon cameras.

Yes, you can use this lens on any Nikon that can take G-lenses (like the D3300). But be aware that if you do have a DX/crop sensor (like the D3300), then the lens will work as a 36mm (still at 1.4). It is a spectacular lens, but unless you want to move to a FX/full frame sensor later, there is probably a cheaper alternative in Nikon's DX range. I use it on a D800 and love it!

Hi. I don't think so. I put my Nikon D80 with 1 lens attached. I cannot put a second lens in. If the lenses are not attached, I can put both lenses and the camera body in, but there's no room for the battery charger.

Any lens work for Nikon. But, the difference is, if the lens is a for a full frame or cropped sensor camera. FX (full frame) Nikon Camera. DX, cropped sensor or not a full frame. That lens is compatible with the Nikon D90 DX, it should work for Nikon D80. Hope it helps my answer.

Yes. I use it on both my D7000 and D7100. Next to my Nikon 70-200 2.8 it's the best lens I own. Produces beautiful results.
