Lighter & more compact The Nikon AF-S 300mm F/4E PF ED VR is one of the world's lightest 300mm full-frame AF lens. This is thanks to a Nikon-designed Phase Fresnel (PF) lens element with an Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass element, which is a first for the NIKKOR DSLR lens lineup. The Phase Fresnel (PF) element is also a high performer. Achieving new levels of sharpness and clarity with virtually no chromatic aberration or ghosting, the lens is perfect for a range of applications. Making it ideal for outdoor and nature shooters is a Nano Crystal Coating to the lens elements which minimise flare. And the fluorine coating on the front element effectively repels dust, water, grease or dirt from affecting the image. When fast moving action needs to be captured, a combination of the Silent Wave Motor AF system and Vibration Reduction provides an image stabilizing effect of 4.5 stops faster shutter speed. This means that you'll be able to capture sharp, clear handheld images, even in low light. What's more, VR modes are specifically designed for Sports & Action and Tripod Shooting to deliver specialized image stabilization matching your situation. It's fast f/4 maximum aperture and rounded nine-blade diaphragm produces beautiful bokeh too, rendering a striking background. Ideal for shooting: fashion, portraits, nature, wildlife, sports, action Compatible with most Nikon Teleconverters Key features: Large aperture range of f/4 to 32 which provides more exposure and less depth of field One Phase Fresnel & One ED Element for optimised performance Nano crystal and super integrated coating Flourine coated front lens element to repel dirt and unpleasant weathers Silent Wave Motor AF System for ultra-quiet, ultra-fast autofocusing with seamless manual override Nikon VR Image Stabilization (4.5 Stops) for sharp, clear handheld images Internal focus, manual focus override
