I’m really just getting into this and need a faster lens. Could you explain the difference with the VR.

The price and Vibration Reduction. Both lenses are very fast and sharp.
Go here to learn more.. Ken Rockwell is where I got most of my knowledge. Sounds like you are just starting out.

www.kenrockwell.com or just google the reviews.. most pros carry 3 lenses the 14-24 f/2.8, the 24-70mm f/2.8 and the 70-200mm f/2.8 These are referred to as the "Holy trinity lenses"

I just ordered this same lens on KEH yesterday. Even after taking advantage of the 10% off their select used Nikon stock, this is a deal. I am half tempted to cancel my order and get it from you.

Yes, VR is the way to go with a lens like this. I bought the Tamron 24-70 G2 which has image stabilization and I am glad it has this feature.

I bought it. I’m hoping it wasn’t an error. I turned the VR off on my 28-300 and ran around shooting everything at a range up to 70 and they were well focused.
Thanks for you input!

I had unexpected travel so no worries.

I'm sure you'll enjoy the lens!
