Product Overview
Travel light and shoot with confidence. Capture beautiful portraits with softly blurred backgrounds, then zoom in with super-telephoto power and capture nature, sports and more. Nikon's second generation Vibration Reduction (VR) enables shooting at shutter speeds up to 4x slower than would otherwise be possible and makes a tripod optional; but when one is needed, the lens automatically delivers specialized VR correction for tripod shooting.
Key Features:
- High optical performance is realized with Super ED glass (x1) and ED glass (x4) elements
- Nano Crystal Coat effectively reduces flare and ghosting
- VR (Vibration Reduction) minimizes camera shake by offering a shutter equivalent to 4.0 stops faster (at 400mm; based on CIPA Standard)
- Silent Wave Motor (SWM) offers quiet AF operation while achieving the highest level AF speed in this class
- Three focus modes are available - A/M (autofocus with manual override, AF priority), M/A (autofocus with manual override, manual priority), M (manual focus)
- AF is possible even with 1.4x teleconverter when attached to f/8-compatible camera
