[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 429867, member: 24753"] OK folks. I thought about starting a new thread, but decided to continue here and added some notes back at the beginning and a bit before the derailment so future readers can bypass the train wreck.:D I'm satisfied that viewfinder image stabilization is a plus regardless of shutter speed. But I'm still curious when/if there is a real reason to turn VR off. Some manuals indicate the need for a half-press to engage VR and let it stabilize. Does a quick-draw and shoot cause an issue? Does burst shooting present a problem? Does focal length matter? What I'd like to see is images that show good results. If anyone wants to push the limits and cannot produce an acceptably sharp image, a brief comment to that effort and result would also be welcome. NOTE: While an acceptably sharp image using VR at a high shutter, in burst mode or other possibly non-standard use tells us something, blurry images simply don't mean anything to this project whether with VR on or off. There are too many ways to make a blurry image. Here is one more I found in the archive at 1/2500 with VR on. 985 pixels wide from a 6016 pixel original [ATTACH type="full" width="30%"]146074._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
