A lens you’ll rarely need, which is why you’re probably looking to rent it. Image quality is of course great, and autofocus performance is very fast even with the included 1.25X teleconverter. Ho...
Q & A
Yes! We carry several camera straps that add comfort and functionality over default straps found on cameras, like the Peak Design Slide Lite Camera Strap or the Kirk SS-1 KES Security Strap.
“E” is a reference to an E-Type lens which uses electronic aperture blade control for improved auto exposure accuracy during continuous shooting. Please note, E lenses have very limited compatibility. Refer to the camera compatibility list under Resources to determine whether or not this is the appropriate lens for your needs.
“FL” designates a lens containing some elements made with fluorite rather than glass. This allows the lens to be lighter without compromising optical quality.
“ED” stands for “Extra-Low Dispersion” Glass and is a reference to specialized glass used for the correction of chromatic aberrations.
“AF-S” refers to Auto Focus that features Nikon’s Silent Wave Motor or “SWM.”
“VR” or “Vibration Reduction” is a reference to Nikon’s proprietary in-lens image stabilization.
If you’re using the included teleconverter, the lens’s autofocus feature will only work with f./8-compatible cameras such as the D3 series, D4, D600, D700, and D800.
Due to its electromagnetic aperture mechanism, this lens isn’t compatible with Nikon D90/D200/D2 DSLRs or older.
