		Probably a stupid question, but do (some) Nikon lenses employ image stabilization?  I've been checking out lenses online and the nomenclature isn't familiar to me.  Canon has it pretty straight-forward (IS = image stabilizer).  Does Nikon have this?  I've seen AF-S, but I'm assuming that means auto focus.

 Yes, Nikon's version is called "VR" (Vibration Reduction).  Also, the "AF-S" Stands for "Silent Wave" autofcus--the equivalant of Canon's USM lenses. |
