Key Features
- F-Mount Lens/FX Format
- Aperture Range: f/3.5 to f/29
- One ED and Three Aspherical Elements
- Super Integrated Coating
Spanning a useful range, the AF-S NIKKOR 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR from Nikon covers wide-angle to portrait-length focal lengths to suit working in a wide variety of situations. The optical design incorporates three aspherical elements and one extra-low dispersion element, which help to greatly reduce spherical and chromatic aberrations throughout the zoom range. A Super Integrated Coating also minimizes surface reflections, flare, and ghosting for improved contrast and color accuracy. Complementing the optics, this lens also sports a Silent Wave Motor for fast and accurate autofocus along with VR II image stabilization to minimize the appearance of camera shake by four stops.
question
will this lens work on the older D80 body? Not sure what style lens I need for the D80. Please advise on the style of lens required for the D80. Thanks
Yes, this lens is compatible with the Nikon D80 camera. The D80 is compatible with any autofocus lenses made by Nikon for the Nikon AF system as well as those made from other manufacturers for the same. As long as the lens mentions being compatible with Nikon autofocus cameras, it will be compatible with your camera.

question
Is this lens better than the 24-85 2.8-4.0 lens? I see this lens has the VR and the other lens above does not have the VR. I am trying to decide which lens to choose. 2.8 to 4.0 is more expensive lens but it seems the 3.5 to 4.5 is cheaper and better suited with the VR. Which is the best lens out of the 2 lens?
The main benefit of the f2.8-f4.0 version of the lens is its macro feature. From 35mm to 85mm the lens has a rather powerful macro setting (for a zoom lens that is) which will allow up to 1:2 macro reproduction. The zooming capability of that makes it a bit more versatile as well. As far as which is best of the two comes down to what you may want to use the lens for. If close-up detailed shots are of interest, consider the f2.8-4 model. If you are more inclined to shoot in low light situations, the other version with VR would be the route to go.

How does it do for wedding photography?
On a full-frame camera specially for outdoor daytime weddings Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR Lens BH #NI248535AFS will be a great lens. For low light situations I would recommend a Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR Lens.
