The 70-300mm non-VR is the only lens that most people will not recommend. The 70-300mm VRII version, on the other hand, is a very good lens. The advantage to it is that it is an FX lens so it will work on a full frame camera. I was looking at the 70-300mm VRII until the 55-300 came out. I like the ability to go wider (55mmm) vs the 70mm. I have not done a side by side comparison but I am VERY pleased with the IQ of the lens and the pictures have been outstanding. The VRII has been excellent when using it hand held at 300mm. I think if you ended up with one you would be very pleased with it too.</p></blockquote><p></p>
