[QUOTE="fotojack, post: 972, member: 16"] I have that same lens and I'm very happy with it. No problems so far. Focus is good, bokeh is good when I need it, the price was certainly right. I use mine in Program mode mostly, though, at a sport setting I have set up in one of my Bank modes in my D200. Something I've heard from pros is.....if using the 55-200 on a tripod, not to use the VR. Apparently it defeats the purpose or something. I'm not too clear on why that is, but that's what I understood. Worst case scenerio, jdeg........perhaps a lemon lens? I would hope not, though, it being a Nikon lens. [/QUOTE]
