I'm getting a digitial SLR camera - Help

[maxalmon]

Good grief, what an amazing disaster...Had to cancell cards, file reports etc....
.
Decided to order from one of the major, well know companies. Even if they are a little more expensvie, it's worth it. Ended up getting the Nikon D80 which is even more camera than I need.
Final order was this
Nikon D80
Nikon 18-55mm included lens
Nikon 17-70mm F2.8 macro
Nikon 55-200mm F4 VR (vibration reduction) said that the new VR lens reduce or make the images more crisp by reducing vibrations or something blah blah
Everything should arrive Tue or Wed.....

Is your friend
VR is the same as canons Image stabilization.
The purpose of it is that it reduces camera shake bye a few stops depending on how good it is. Wich lets you handhold a camera at a much lower shutter speed then you normally could. lets say shooting 200mm..you would normally want about 1/200 or higher shutter speed. but with the VR you could most likely get sharp image at 1/80 and maybe below on how good you are at keeping steady.
