Not sure if this is the right level of forum, but as I have Nikon lenses with VR, I'll ask it here. I was reading a photo magazine the other day in relation to shooting with a tripod. A one line statement caught my attention that said the VR (Vibration Reduction) option should be turned off of you are using a tripod otherwise this could cause problems. The thing is the article did not state what the problems might be.
So, I ask the question - Why would using VR on a tripod cause a problem? Surely, the lens could only be more stable, or does the poor little thing get in a tiz because its got nothing to do?
I have been leaving VR turned on whether hand holding or tripod mounting. Could this be a problem if my tripod shots are not as clear as expected?
Cheers,
Steve.
