if you are on a budget, for less than $500, you can get a 70-300. Although the 70-200 is the go to lens for most pros, it is just that: a pro lens. being that you have a d80, i take it that you are not a full time photographer yet. the 70-300 is a great lens, and you will get amazing results and 50% more length out of it. getting the 70-200 at this point, would be like getting high performance tires when you just a normal commuter, not an indy 500 qualifier.
used, you can pick up a mint condition one for about 250-300.
