[QUOTE="Jet Jockey, post: 262432, member: 15381"] [COLOR=#222222][FONT=Verdana]Not sure I understand your comment. This new 300mm F4 VR lens is supposed to replace the actual non VR 300mm lens. I thought that the VR lenses help you usually by 2 stops in lower light situations, so why would you want to turn it off? As for price I'm sure it could be double the price of the present day 300mm. One would want to wait and see what the write ups from the critics say about it to see if the higher price justifies its purchase.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#222222][FONT=Verdana]Having read some reviews on the present 300mm, it seems to be a very well accepted lens with very good overall performance but lacking the VR option. [/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#222222][FONT=Verdana]I’m tempted by it but I was just wondering if I should holdout for the new version? [/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#222222][FONT=Verdana]Your insight on whether I should buy the actual 300mm versus the newer version when and if it becomes available would be appreciated.[/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
