followup to my Nikon D-60 with VR lenses post.....
When my son was here ffor the holidays...he brought their D-40 with standard non-VR lenses and we did a number of comparison shots to see how the VR lenses ( Vibration Reduction in Nikon speak) worked....
the difference could be great (especially under low light) or it could be minimal in high light (fast lens speed) pictures. I am glad I have the VR lenses....they seem to make up for my large mitts and my tendency to snap-off a picture and thereby move the camera .... especially with the small poinnt and shoot digital I have been using.
I would not buy a new digital without some form of vibration reduction having seen the results of our comparison.
Just my novice two cents....
