[QUOTE="Texas, post: 719617, member: 42267"] This: [B]Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6E VR AF-P FX [/B]The FX version of the 70-300 AF-P has the VR switch. It also has the E-lectronic diaphragm. New, costs $700. I've seen used less than $500. Works on the D7100 with firmware update. I'm not sure what the firmware update does, but Nikon does say VR cannot be turned off. Buy it from Amazon or someone who will take it back with no questions (but buy the DX one without the VR switch first, then if you think it is worth the extra $250 to get a VR switch return it) I have the AF-P E VR FX version on my D750 about half the time I'm using it and it is terrific, the VR is at least 4 stops. I used to have the AF-S G VR FX version which I gave to my son earlier in the year to use for his kid's sports project. He likes it a lot so I recently bought the AF-P E FX and really appreciate its optical and VR superiority. I do shut off the VR in the rare occasions where shutter speeds are above 1/500 or when on a tripod, but don't really know if it matters. [/QUOTE]
