My major complaint with VS is that it is too fast.  I do a lot of 1/60th
second pan shots for the boating clients and I'm shooting at f/16 with
Velvia.  The polarizer increases contrast, but does allow me to shoot a
two stops down (for better sharpness).  I'd love to have a VS or Velvia
at 25ASA.  With VS I will either have to use a neutral density filter
and or polarizer to do the pan blurr stuff that is a staple of the jobs.

Life is tough..
