[QUOTE="skater, post: 434049, member: 19158"] Yeah, I intend to try it out (actually, I've already used it for a few shots) and see. I figure, at worst, it's still better than the Quantaray 100-300 zoom we have that we both dislike (Quantaray was the Ritz Camera in-house brand back when they had physical stores). At best, it will displace my 55-200 kit lens. No VR, so we'll see, but I'm not seeing a huge advantage with VR anyway. It's not that useful for sports, so I turn it off, but for other situations I have the time to set up and steady myself before firing...so I'm not clear when it should be helping me. Also...I wonder how long it'll be before I break the habit of looking at the back of the camera to see how my shots came out. ;) A joke I made about shooting with film: While packing, "...and extra memory cards."
