Good value but with chroma problems
This lens is decent. It's sharp stopped down, sort of. I say sort of because even stopped down, it seems to have some strange chroma issues that are are hard to remedy, and the result just looks a tad blurry in the corners. For the most part, however, it's great for what it is. Zero distortion and its mechanics are superb.

Sharp, Older Tech, but Solid
I am a Canon guy at heart, but as a Nikon convert I must say this is a great lens -- better optically than the Canon equivalent. Seems a little clunky mounting it on my D750, and sometimes the contacts don't register until I jiggle it a bit. No big deal. Sharp as a tack. No CA.
Heavy? Yeah, but that is because 70-200 2.8 lenses are heavy, period.
Hood is awesome, and locks in nice and tight.
VR is uniformly outstanding.
Bokeh is average. If that matters to you, switch to Canon and buy a 135 f2. (The Nikon 135 f/2 is a slow dinosaur that is only good for portraits.) Great all-around standard pro-issue lens.
Just buy it if you are a pro. If you are not a pro, don't. It's not a pro lens because it produces pro results. It's a pro lens because accomplished pros understand their craft well enough to exploit the lens' strengths and minimize its weaknesses.

Outstanding piece of glass
2 of 2 found this helpful If Canon were to make a macro version of this lens, they could easily charge $3,000 for it. When I view my Canon 5D Mark II files at 100% the clarity and definition is spectacular. I've shot just about every Canon lens. This one is the best optically. The only hitch is some CA wide-open.
