[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 66104, member: 9521"] I also have a copy of the old non-VR version of this lens and it served me very well when my son was in La Crosse. That lens and my trusty D70s captured some Sport Illustrated-worthy shots, if I do say so myself. Kids flying over each other and the ball frozen in mid-air, etc. On an FX (or 35mm) the edges at 300 are a bit soft and it does have a solid pincushion issue, but on a DX all that is minimal and for the going price these lenses fetch on the market, it's a solid purchase for someone w/o a longer zoom and doesn't want to spend $500 for the VRII version.
