[QUOTE="Needa, post: 832751, member: 37799"] Welcome! As you didn’t post an image with EXIF and you mentioned low light as a reminder at 200 MM using the inverse formula assuming 3 stops of VR you should have a minimum shutter speed or 1/60 -1/70 and some believe that number should be 1/100 because it is a DX camera. This of course individual and technique sensitive. One thing I’ve noticed is cleaning the lens mount and connections plus the body mount and connections seems to improve both VR and AF performance. That said it is definite possible for the VR to fail it is a moving part. It won't most likely be repaired by Nikon repair, too old, but check. If Nikon won't you will need to source a shop able and willing to do the repair. [/QUOTE]
