I do like the nikon f4, but you can't always get closer (zoo). At that point, only a larger aperture will help. I can rent the older Tamron from my dealer for $20 for the weekend. Won't rent the new one yet as he only has one since they just came out. Renting the old one will give me an idea of weather or not I feel I need VR or VC. I won't use this lens a lot, the occasional bear in the woods, so I'm not going all out. If I'm ok without VR, my choices come down to the older Tamron or Nikon 80-200. If I need VC, it will be the new tamron.</p></blockquote><p></p>
