High-power 4.3x Telephoto Zoom-Nikkor lens approximates the picture angle performance of a 105-450mm lens on 35mm SLR.
Vibration
Reduction (VRII) minimizes the effects of camera shake allowing
photographers to shoot handheld at as many as 4 shutter speeds slower
than would otherwise be possible, assuring dramatically sharper images.
Two Nikon
Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements deliver superior optical
performance for both digital and 35mm photography. ED glass minimizes
chromatic aberrations, contributing to superb contrast and resolution
performance.
Internal
Focus (IF) provides fast and quiet auto focusing without changing the
length of the lens, retaining subject-working distance through the
focus range.
Focus as close as 4.9 ft throughout entire zoom range.
Non-rotating
front element provides for convenient use of circular polarizing
filters and the Nikon Wireless Close-Up Speedlight System.
A
Silent Wave Motor (SWM) enables fast and quiet auto focusing, along
with quick switching between auto focus and manual operation (M/A and
M).
A nine-blade rounded diaphragm opening makes out-of-focus elements appear more natural.
