[QUOTE="Geoffc, post: 303535, member: 8705"] I tried a used vri lens and it didn't impress me too much so I returned it. The vrii is simply better glass but you pay a premium for it. I bought it originally for DX but moved to FX so it's still the right solution. I previously compared my wife's 70-300 against the 70-200 vrii. I did it controlled on a tripod. The resolving power of the 70-200 was so much better I could crop the pictures to the same view as the 70-300 and the image was still better. She now has a 70-200 2.8 vrii as well and sold the 70-300. That was an expensive test that I did !!! I also use it with the 2x teleconvertor viii and it's pretty good but becomes a 400mm f5.6.
