[QUOTE="aroy, post: 425156, member: 16090"] Have you ever wondered how much power the VR consumes? After using the kit lens with my D3300 for eight months, I was surprised to get extended life from the battery, when I switched to the other lenses I have. Well here is my finding. . Battery life with 18-55 VR-II, with 10% on-board flash between 300 and 350 . Battery life with 16-85 VR-I, with SB-800 between 450 and 550 . Battery life with 35mm F1.8, no VR and 50% shots with on-board flash 750+ Now this is what Nikon manual says . Single frame release : 700 . Continuous release : 2500 So has any body faced low battery life when using the latest VR lenses? Feed back on actual observed battery life for various bodies are welcome. [/QUOTE]
