Overall Rating: 

Nikons new 70-200mm zoom lens features an innovative Vibration Reduction (VR) system that allows handheld telephoto zoom shooting even in poorly lit conditions. The VR system minimizes image blur caused by camera shake, and offers the equivalent of shooting at a shutter speed 3 stops (8 times) faster. The lens offers a natural viewfinder image even during VR operation and also detects automatically when the photographer pans. It is ideal for candid, portrait, sports photography and more.

It May Just Well BE The BEST Zoom Lens EVER Made! - by colonialpara
Pros: Very rugged and robust, outstanding optics, Vibration Reduction, VERY FAST Focus!
Cons: High Cost. No aperture ring.
Bottom Line: It may just be the FINEST zoom lens ever brought to market anywhere!
Review: Seven epinions reviewers before me have reviewed this lens and I'd have to say that every one of them has done a fine job of pointing out why serious photographers using Nikon cameras should own this lens. As of this writing, I do not, but I know a... (more)

Possibly the best zoom lens ever made - by mimoid
Pros: Sharp, fast, precise, sharp and exact. VR actually works. Oh, did I say sharp?
Cons: Very expensive for the amateur photographer
Bottom Line: If you are serious about photography and can afford this lens, by all means get one - you will not be disappointed!
Review: Background The Nikon 70-200 2.8 AF-S VR is the successor of the 80-200 range of Nikkor lenses (all discontinued), but is more of a complete redesign than just a tweaked new version. The new lens is far more complex than the previous designs,... (more)
The 70-200mm f2.8G ED-IF VR, What a Sweet Lens!! - by h2c911sc
Pros: A 100-300mm f2.8G ED-IF VR lens with a D200 or'D' camera body
Cons: This 'G' Series lens will not work on earlier Nikon film camera bodies
Bottom Line: An excellent lens with superb optics, fast, quick and precise focus. Sharp handheld images in adverse light conditions. A 300mm f2.8 ED-IF VR for less than half the price!
Review: I made the purchase of my 70-200mm f2.8G ED-IF VR lens recently after selling off my tried and true manual focus 300mm.f2.8 ED-IF and for the first time in my photography career, I made the move away from a camera bag full of beautifully fast... (more)
The Best Just Got Better - by ehwang
Pros: VR mode up to 2 f-stops faster, great tripod collar design
Cons: "G" design lens--no f-stop ring, too many switches
Bottom Line: Redesigned and well thought out, the VR mode will clinch the deal if you shoot action. If you already own an 80-200 zoom, it's worth the extra money.
Review: Having owned just about every 80-200 zoom lens that Nikon has made, I was initially skeptical about the electronic wizardry of this new VR lens. But after several weeks, I realized that this lens was more than just the VR mode. The optics are even better... (more)
I LOVE HER SO!!! - by 3rdpower
Pros: Bokeh... Sharpness... Contrast... Did I say sharpness?
Cons: She's a heavy weight
Review: If I could make babies with the 70-200 VR they would come out almost perfect. Having the 70-200 VR is like being a professional. It's ability to shoot in low light is uncanny. The colors, the saturation, and the sharpness are top quality and usually... (more)
