So I got this elusive lens yesterday and have been playing around with it for a bit, it is ridiculously sharp (in comparision to my VR2) even wide open at minimun focus distance. The VR works great in conjunction with the in-body IBIS, I am by no means a rock steady shooter so managing to use it at 200mm down to 1/20s is really good (I even managed to get a couple shots off at 1/10).
All in all it seems as if the brilliant 24-70 2.8 S set a precedent of what to expect with Nikons S-series.



I’ll also upload a few full sized jpg’s that you can have a look out here (WP does not support NEF files):
