As well, should I get VR or would I be fine without it? The difference is about a $80 difference
Kyle, it's fast enough if you shoot during the day with enough light outside. If you're shooting at dusk, dawn, or at night, then probably not.

I assume the VR works as well as the IS does for Canon. If so, I highly recommend getting it since it'll be tough to hold it still at 200mm without a tripod.
