[QUOTE="NVSteve, post: 464287, member: 13248"] Okay, so I pretty much never use VR/VC on any of my lenses. Mostly because my higher ISO shooting always seems to involve movement. I have also always been a focus & recompose type shooter, always setting my cameras to have a single, super fine focus point in the center of the viewfinder because I don't want the camera to choose its own. I think I may have tried the VC on the Tamron, but forgot to turn it off for a while. Or, my focus & recompose technique simply wasn't working for me (very large area through the viewfinder). I noticed a few of my ISO100 shots, with a 1/400th or faster shutter speed, ended up a bit blurred. For the most part, the lens nailed everything I asked of it, although it is prone to overexposing on my D600. I also used the AEL button so often that my finger was hurting a bit & I kept muttering that Nikon should have placed it closer to the grip. I definitely need to play around with this lens a bit more and do some testing with it to see what adjustments I need to make when shooting with it. I didn't have this problem with the 16-35 (aside from crappy edge performance), but I also didn't shoot anything super contrasty like I did with Tamron. Anyway, a few more. 15mm f/2.8, excellent across the entire frame: [IMG]https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3955/18665626029_224b231e44_o.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3748/18665630159_3c4c04f2f4_o.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3676/18664118010_b1c48c69ca_o.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5587/18846686302_87d45b622a_o.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5474/18851865755_d46edd3d60_o.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
