Looking forward to the Canon lens. It is a different range and probably much sharper and has VR.
Does the Canon VR (IS?) work in macro use? According to Nikon the Nikkor 105 f2.8 VR Micro the VR doesn't work close up.
I don't understand why, it would be very interesting to know if it's VR and close working that doesn't work or some characteristic of the Nikkor lens that causes the limitation.
Strictly speaking, the paperwork that came with the 100vr said that VR performance diminished when approaching less than 18†(if my memory serves me correctly). It didn't actually say it 'didn't work'.
I got sharper images when using a tripod than the VR ...but I guess that would always be better.
