Pretty sure the 2nd one has Vibration Reduction (VR) which I like. It seems my hands shake more than I realized before I had a VR lens

One is probably grey market and the other is US. I don't recall the exact difference, I think it has to do with warrenties and such. B&H has something on their site that describes it. It could also be that the less expensive one was returned and refurbished.

Is it possible they are the same lens?

It looks like the Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED AF-S VR has VRII reduction also.Chat Icon

Is it from the same site? Are they both US manufactured?
