This VR feature was thought, originally, for people with motoric disorders or if the photographer is subjected to steady vibrations such as in a car i.e. The price to pay for this stabilization is the [B]loss of the instant[/B]. This means that, when one presses the release, the real take will happen only when the camera system will have obtain sure focus. If you press the release, keep the pose until the shutter is released! This [B]loss of the instant[/B] makes, for me, VR a most undesirable feature. [/QUOTE]
