Right from the rumor mill, we may be seeing a revised nikon mid range zoom incorporating VR at WPPI 2009.
Wouldn't that be nice? It sure would for people photographers in low light!

But why? VR is all but useless in a midrange zoom since you can hand-hold at such low speeds anyway.

I know this thread is more about digital cameras, but I was wondering...Does anyone here have/use Nikon's high-end film scanner? I ask because I'm planning on getting a 6x7 medium format camera, and 99megapixels is just insane. Is it really the best film scanner under $5,000?
50mm at F/2.8 isn't that fast, especially when no flashes are allowed during the ceremony.
Professionals can use all the help they can get!
If you're running into shutter speeds where you can't hand-hold at 50 f/2.8, you're running as much or more of a risk of subject motion blur than hand motion blur, and VR can't help subject motion.

During most of the ceremony (aside from the bride entering and the couple exiting) things are pretty slow paced, so IS/VR comes in handy.
I do know what you mean though.
The biggest complaints I've heard from the nikon 24-70 from wedding photographers is the lack of VR and the size of it.
If nikon could add VR to their 24-70, that might make a lot of wedding photographers reconsider their canon's, which is an area nikon would like to take back (wedding photographers).
Well, we'll see if this rumor turns into fruition.
