Is it much better than the older 70-300 G? I thought about going and grabbing one of the new VR versions for vacation use. I bet that lens would be great for travel, especially when I want to travel light.... well... lighter... but I'm concerned about using it on the D3 as there is a difference in using the lens on an FX sensor. I'm sure it's pretty good on a D300, but I'm also certain there'll be visible light falloff in the corners with the D3. I'm wondering about CA as well on the FX sensor.

Anyone comment on those aspects on a D3?
