That is the point. The ones who can sell out for the 200-400mm f4 VR will do so, as the 80-400mm VR is inferior. And the ones who can't afford the weight and/or cost of the 200-400mm f4 VR get the 80-400mm VR and tell themselves what a great lens it is (yes, this 80-400mm gets called great very often in forums).



But, I am sure it will be replaced in the not too distant future.

Nikon have filed a number of patents for similar focal range lenses recently.



The latest was for a 100-400 F/4.5-5.6 ED G VR design.



A replacement seems likely to be in the (slow) Nikon pipeline, therefore. Various rumours say it will be soon.
