Do I need to use VR when I am using a tripod?
For example.. taking a photo of the moon..
Loony 11 rule
Tripod
LiveView
focal length 200mm (Nikkor 55-200 f/3.5-4.5 lens)
Do I need to use VR(on) or not use VR(off)?
Thank you.

It is not generally recommended to use VR when using a tripod.
The motor may actually cause more camera shake than there would be without it.
There are exceptions, such as a windy day or during an earthquake.
When using a tripod don’t forget to use either cable or timed release.

Thank you for the information and commentsMr. Mandrake.
Thanks also for the sample photo Mr. aaz148.
Actually I try to take a photo of the moon last month using the ff:
Loony 11 rule
Tripod
LiveView
focal length 200mm (Nikkor 55-200 f/3.5-4.5 lens)
with the VR on
and an IR remote
the outcome of the photo is blurred.
And Sadly I cannot try capturing the moon this season (it is currently rainy season in the phillipines)..
I’ll try to capture a photo by next month..
Thank you.
Best regards,
