Lens Vibration Reduction (VR)
We recommend using VR lenses with
the vibration reduction ON/OFF switch
in the ON position.
If the lens has a vibration reduction mode switch, choose
NORMAL for hand-held photography or when using a mono-
pod. Vibration reduction should generally be turned o
when the camera is on a tripod, although an exception
can be made for a lens such as the AF-S NIKKOR 200mm
f/2G ED VR II, which automatically detects tripod vibra-
tion. Vibration reduction should also be turned o if you
notice shake during  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, o er vibration re-
duction with a TRIPOD option that is gen-
erally recommended when the camera
is mounted on a tripod. NORMAL is how-
ever preferred if the tripod head is not
 xed or you are using a monopod.
