I've run into a 'weakness' with my Nikon 70-200 f/2.8 VR1 and i'm wondering if the VR2 would handle it better..
The problem.. Shooting my younger sons games @ 9am...
Shooting West 2 weeks ago (morning sun at my back)..
1/3200 | f/3.2 | 250 iso | 133mm
Shooting East this week (directly into the morning sun)..
1/2000 | f/3.2 | 320 iso | 133mm
I've read that this is one of the issues with the 70-200 f/2.8 VR1 (shooting into the sun) but this is the first time I've really run into it. Horrible glare, washed out colors, low contrast... It's killing me!
Whats funny is i don't get the same washed out images shooting at evening (sunset) with the VR1. I think the location of this field and the time of the games = worst lighting conditions for the VR1
I've used the VR2 but never in this situation... My question is... How much better would the VR2 be shooting into the early/sunrise sun? would it be worth the upgrade?
