The II's about a stop steadier...closer to 4, than the 3 of the VR
Also on an FX body the corners are nicer and less vignette. The II
takes all the Nikon TC's better both in IQ & AF speed. The knock
on the VR II is some focus breathing inside 30' at 200mm, but
the 70mm end is actually closer to 70 than the VR is (@73mm)
After having run a hundred thousand clicks thru each, my take
is the VR II is slightly sharper in the center but I like the bokeh
of the VR a tad better. Since I employ TC's I work the VR II for
close in BIF and rodeos. Naked, it's dynamite for Sr portraits.
