Product details

High-performance telephoto zoom lens with long range. With a focal length of 200 to 500 mm and a continuous luminous intensity of 1:5.6, this lens for the FX format opens up a new level of versatility in supertele photography.
Whether you're shooting wildlife, birds, aeroplanes or action-packed sporting events, this lens delivers consistent performance. The focal length range of 200 to 500 mm gives the photographer an exceptional range.
The constant speed of 1:5.6 makes it possible to achieve uniform exposure times when shooting the same subject with different focal lengths.
Nikon's powerful image stabilizer allows camera shake-free shooting with up to 4.5 EV longer exposure times. The "Sport" VR mode provides a stable viewfinder image when tracking fast subject movements.
Electromagnetic aperture control has the advantage of higher exposure consistency, especially for fast continuous shooting.

Ausgezeichnete Auflösung auf einem schmalen Blenden-Grat (eine Strufe abblenden!) und tadellose Mechanik machen das SLR-Nikkor zur guten Wahl.
