[QUOTE="stmv, post: 66384, member: 10038"] A few more subtle changes as Nikon recycles old lens design, The first is that the VR function adds bulk, so the older lens is more compact, the second is that the older lens is still made in Japan, while the newer consumer lens including the new Nikkor 24-85 AFS VR are made in China. I am sure the move to China is what is helping keep the lens to a reasonable 600 dollar price, but kinda miss the old Made in Japan sign of quality. [/QUOTE]
