[QUOTE="AC016, post: 138733, member: 9619"] Just scanend over the article by Thom. I have lenses with both VR and no VR (VC). I used the 18-55 that came with my D3000 that had no VR and had no issues - i did not even really know what VR was back then. I used my 55-200 with VR on at all times when taking the hundreds upon hundreds of aircraft photos. My shutter speeds were well over 1/500 and i had no issues. I don't use VR on my 35mm.... well, it does not have VR! Same goes for my 400mm. I really don't see how it would make people "negligent", since i put jsut as much effort in holding my camera with my 35 as i do with my 18-55 with VR. Unfortunatley, we tend to over analyze things a bit to much when in fact there is a simple answer: use it for what its worth or don't use it. Keeping it on at all times - except on tripod - does no harm. If you come away with a good, clear picture and then post it up online, will anyone know if you used it or not? Will anyone care? And no Thom, I never thought it was magic! What a goof. [/QUOTE]
