Product Details / Description:

Its versatile telephoto range allows you to isolate subjects and compress perspectives, transforming your travel photos into stunning, detailed works of art. It is an indispensable tool for capturing things you simply cannot get close to.

About the Product

This ultra-telephoto lens is engineered with superior optics, including ED and Super ED glass elements, to virtually eliminate color fringing and produce vivid, true-to-life images. The inclusion of Nano Crystal and ARNEO coatings drastically reduces flare and ghosting, maintaining contrast even when shooting toward bright light sources, like sunrises over Mount Fuji.

A key feature for travelers is the innovative “center of gravity non-shift mechanism.” This means the balance of your camera setup remains constant as you zoom, making it much easier to track subjects and shoot for long periods without fatigue, whether you are waiting for a crane to land or a Shinkansen to pass.

Key Features

• Ultra-telephoto zoom covering a versatile 100mm to 400mm range.
• Advanced 5 point 5 stop image stabilization to minimize camera shake.
• High-quality optics using ED and Super ED lenses for exceptional clarity.
• Multi-focus system for quick, precise, and silent autofocus.
• Constant lens balance due to the center of gravity non-shift mechanism.

Faqs:

What kind of photography is this 100-400mm lens best suited for on a trip to Japan?

This lens is ideal for any photography requiring significant reach, such as wildlife, birding, and capturing distant subjects like Mount Fuji. It is also excellent for sports and isolating details in urban or natural landscapes.

Do I need a tripod to use this lens effectively, or is the VR system enough?

While a tripod is always recommended for the best results, the powerful 5 point 5 stop Vibration Reduction system is highly effective. You can confidently shoot handheld in many situations, especially with good light.

Can I use this lens with the Z TELECONVERTER 1 point 4x or 2 point 0x?

Yes, this lens is fully compatible with both the Z TELECONVERTER TC-1 point 4x and the TC-2 point 0x. This allows you to extend the reach up to 560mm or 800mm, respectively, for extreme telephoto shots.

What makes this an “S-Line” lens, and why is that important for image quality?

“S-Line” denotes Nikon’s premium range of lenses, which guarantees superior optical performance, build quality, and advanced features. This means your images will have maximum sharpness, beautiful color rendition, and minimal aberrations.

Is the lens difficult to carry around for a tourist walking all day?

Weighing approximately 1435g with the tripod foot, this is a relatively light lens for its focal range. Its excellent balance due to the non-shift mechanism makes it comfortable to carry and handle for extended periods.
