    Here is a shot I made with this magnificent lens just a couple hours ago at night at 1/6th of a second handheld - wow. This lens is truly awesome.

    I'm sure the VR on other Nikkors is equally amazing. Anyone gone lower than 1/6th with a VR and gotten really sharp?

    I'm stunned. :shock:

    Your right, this lens is awesome. I too have taken low light hand held shots down at rediculous shutter speeds. Good job.

    Hey Todd,

    I've seen some excellent examples of what this lens can do (I have it BTW), but this is about as convincing as you can get.

    Impressive.... :lol:

    Todd, that's great. Yes, the VR is great (I have one, too), but that shot still required good technique on your part. Good job!

    I second that. I only wish its a bit lighter! When put on a D2X or D2H, the whole asembly is too heavy for me to lug around for long.
