BUILT-IN 1.4X TELECONVERTER Extend your reach to 560 mm the instant you need it. A flick of a switch on the right side of the lens is all it takes to engage the teleconverter without changing shooting posture.
UNWAVERING AF Nikon’s Silky Swift VCM autofocus system with optical ABS encoder delivers phenomenally fast focusing with spot-on subject acquisition and tracking.
POWERFUL IMAGE QUALITY The f/2.8 maximum aperture opens up options, and bokeh is beautifully rounded. In-lens Vibration Reduction gives you a 5.5-stop advantage.
SUPERB COLOUR, CLARITY, AND CONTRAST Nikon’s high-performance, anti-reflective Meso Amorphous Coat combats ghosting and flare. ED, Super ED, and SR glass elements counter chromatic aberrations.
TOUGH AND BALANCED The lens’ centre of gravity is towards the rear for more stable operation. Sealing around all moving parts keeps dust and moisture at bay1 , and Nikon’s fluorine coating protects the front element.
CUSTOMISABLE CONTROL You can assign functions to the Fn buttons, the focus ring, the silent control ring—and the Fn ring. You can save focus distances to the memory-set button.2
SECURE AND STEADY The removable tripod foot allows optimum balance when the lens is attached to a tripod. A Kensington® Security Slot helps keep your lens safe
FILTER READY An integrated filter slot makes it easy to drop in filters, giving you even more control over tricky lighting situations.
1 The lens is not guaranteed to be dust- and drip-resistant in all situations and under all conditions.
2 The memory-set button can be activated following a firmware update.
