i have afs 200 vr f2 and hardly ever used it , bought it for $6000 and after 4 years now there is a vr2. i regret buying it , cause it is heavy and inconvenient to use and if you take around ,you attract people and you can't enjoy shooting.
Haha, I handhold my 500 f4 vr 99 percent of the time, the vr works a treat and i have had sharp images at 1/30th. Thats why vr is there! Dig the afro my friend!
i have a question. if i put this lens on a DX cam. Then you get about 400 multiplied by 1.5 = 600mm. but what happens with the aperture? do i have to multiply it by 1.5 as well? is it "just" f6 then? thx.
@BlueShirt7 The actual aperture would stay the same on a DX camera. However, the depth of field is deeper on a DX camera because the sensor is smaller. I believe F4 on DX is the same as F5.6 on FX. Remember, this is only depth of feild and will not affect the shutter speeds you can get at f4.
Sigma also now has a 200-500mm F:2.8 lens. it comes with a 2x converter making it a 400-1000mm. but the price of it is more expensive than several cars. just under 30k. lol

Hi Jared
In reality if you could pick up a VR1 200-400 which is around 700-800 dollars less than VR2. As you say its going to be on a tripod.

@JaredPolin actually the DOF is 1 stop darker on a DX camera compared to FX for the same aperture.
