I am thinking of upgrading the lense anyways, does it make a big difference? -

For me it made a big difference. That VR feature makes it easier to drag the shutter a little w/o the blurring. In truth, this lens is way too good for my D70 - it would probably perform better on the D300 or the D80. BUT...the $850 price tag for the lens alone is pretty steep. I am thinking seriously of getting a smaller point-n-shoot unit like the Coolpix P5100 for those times I don't want to carry the big camera bag around.

Besides, with your typical subject matter, it's hard to take a bad picture.
