I think quite a few have used one-stop digital and not had any real problems :

£129 for the 55-200mm VR from purely gadgets. I have this lens from that very store. If you were thinking of going for the 55-200mm non-VR I'd strongly recommend you save up for a bit for the VR version

For the money - great! I don't have any shots from it online but I should be able to put some up later.
