From Cameralabs verdict :

The AF-S 300mm f4E is the sharpest, lightest and smallest 300mm f/4.0 lens you can get for your Nikon DSLR. I couldn’t find fault with the background Bokeh and the Fresnel flare is limited to very specific shooting situations which wouldn’t hold me back from awarding it a “Highly Recommended”. 

But tough luck: the VR has great potential but didn’t deliver in a critical range of shutter-speeds around 1/160 – 1/80 sec on my test copies of the lens. Sure: you can switch the VR off but then you’re paying top dollars for a lens where one of the major features is not properly working. I simply can’t recommend that.
