Lens Vibration Reduction (VR) Lens Vibration Reduction (VR)
We recommend using VR lenses with the vibration reduc-
tion ON/OFF switch in the ON position.
If the lens has a vibration reduction mode switch, choose ACTIVE for hand-held photography or
when using a monopod. Vibration reduction should generally be turned off when the camera is on a
tripod, although an exception can be made for a lens such as the AF-S NIKKOR 200 mm f/2G ED VR II,
which automatically detects tripod vibration. Vibration reduction should also be turned off if you
notice shake during fi lming when panning a camera that is mounted on a tripod.
Tripod Mode
Some lenses, such as the AF-S NIKKOR 400 mm f/2.8G ED VR,
off er vibration reduction with a TRIPOD option that is gen-
erally recommended for panning and other moving shots
when the camera is mounted on a tripod. Choose NORMAL
for static compositions or OFF to reduce picture shake.
