I've had my 70-200 VR II for 2 weeks now and am in LOVE with it! I needed it for my 7 year old son's basketball games :) I know, "need" may not be totally true, but since I plan on keeping this through my 4 children's childhoods I believe it is money well spent! This lens has been an absolute joy to use, especially compared to the dark and noisy pictures that I got with the Nikkor 70-300 VR model that I had for a week before returning! This lens is WELL WORTH the extra money and extra weight! Since I shoot with a D90, I'm also glad that the reach is reduced on the close subjects as it helps avoid the need of switching to a wider angle lens when the action comes in a little closer. The only problem that I currently have with this lens is that I never want to put it down!
Simply the best lens I've had the chance to use./ Great VR and ability to capture light means better low light shots: I managed to take night shots at ISO 160, 200mm and 1/10th of a second, handheld. I have simply never seen anything like this before.2/ Improved optics mean cleaner shots: distortion is pretty much inexistent, lines remain almost perfectly straight even on the edges. I use a DX body so can't speak for FX bodies, but on my camera there is no vignetting nor soft corner issues at F/2.8. Tests have seen mention that it's greatly improved on FX lenses compared to the previous model.finally, the sharpness of this lens is mind blowing: it is probably one of the sharpest lenses ever made.
3/ It works superbly with the TC 1.7 converter if you're looking for a great 340mm lens (not so much with the 2.0 one, be warned).
