[QUOTE="Jimbob 2705, post: 234791, member: 18646"] Hi All, Ive owned a Nikon 70-300 VR for a couple of years now, but I think it has a problem. The lens shakes violently at times, and is very noisy. The whole lens seems to move/shake, and when looking through the viewfinder you can see it jumping around as the lens shakes. There seems to be a pattern of it jumping low and to the left then up and to the right, then back down, up, etc This can go on from anywhere from 1 second all the way up to 5 seconds. The lens is not usable when it is doing this. Has anyone ever heard of this problem? It sounds similar to this : [url=http://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/2831968]70-300mm VR sometimes violently shakes ...: Nikon SLR Lens Talk Forum: Digital Photography Review[/url] The lens has seen very little use, I'd guess a maximum of 1000 shots, and has been well looked after. It is now out of its warranty, so I am worried that it will cost me a fortune to get it looked at and fixed. Thanks! James [/QUOTE]
