Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 600mm f/4G ED VR Lens

This AF-S super-telephoto NIKKOR lens features Nikon's new VR II vibration reduction system, which minimizes image blur caused by camera shake. This offers shutter speeds equivalent to up to four stops faster. Nikon's Tripod mode reduces vibration further that may occur at shutter release when shooting with a super-telephoto lens attached to a tripod. Three ED (Extra-low dispersion) elements utilize chromatic aberration while enhancing contrast and sharpness. Nikon Nano Crystal Coat, Super Integrated Coating, and a Meniscus protective glass element are combined to further reduce ghosting and flare. Silent Wave Motor is incorporated to enable fast autofocusing with excellent accuracy with powerful, super-quiet operation. For the out-of-focus elements, a Rounded diaphragm opening (9 blades) makes them appear more natural. The maximum aperture of f/4 makes it sure to get the perfect shot in dim occasions as the zoom gets up to a focal point of 600mm. It is compatible with APS-C and Full Frame Sensor DSLR Cameras.
