Can't look at this thread anymore! It wouldn't do my bank account any good.

I had a chance to buy a 200/2 AIS while visiting a camera store in Missoula and wished that I had picked it up . . . . though my bank account is certainly happy I did not.
I have a elementary school play to shoot in January and a 200/2 VRII would be just the ticket as my 70-200/2.8AFS is just adequate for the job due to the low light and f/2 @200mm would be fantastic!

Pay for my flights and accom and I'll come over and lend it to you for your shoot.

+1 I'm always glad to see great shots and a new thread with photos done with the 200/2 would be great.

I use the TT Glass Taxi as well but use a Lens Coat "Hoodie" which okay but little awkward to remove and replace. Have a Don Zeck lens cap but don't use it due to a little accident I had with it.
I'm surprised that the Aquatech lens cap rests against the glass. I'd never heard that before.

That'd be a mistake
Totally agree with TM on this. The front glass on chubby is not actually a lens element but a protective meniscus glass that apparently isn't too costly to replace. Still, who wants to have to go down that path and get one replaced with the resultant downtime and aggravation?

Only $160 ($190 for VR II) for a weekend at Lensrentals. I'd do it just for the experience!
