[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 430679, member: 24753"] If I'm not mistaken you can pick up used but "like new" VR versions for around $100 bucks. Any camera store that deals Nikon and takes trades will have several on the shelf that have barely been used. There is also a newer version of the lens that is lighter, has the newer VR, but of course cost a bit more. Need or not will depend on how well you hold the camera and the type of shooting you do. The things that will benefit from VR would be: - Shaky hands - Shooting in lower light - Adding depth of field - Shooting video - Focusing on small subjects [/QUOTE]
