Professional super-telephoto zoom

Wild animals in the wild. Sports. Aircraft. Portraits. Its 100 to 400 mm zoom range, advanced optics, and reliable weather sealing make this fast full-frame lens a versatile equipment piece. Excellent imaging performance at any distance covers all eventualities. Welcome to this powerhouse.

When you can only take one lens with you 

From very close to incredibly far - keep at it. AF is fast, precise and exceptionally quiet. From birds to planes, tracking is a breeze when paired with mirrorless Nikon Z cameras with animal or vehicle autofocus. The lens' outstanding resolution is maintained even when using a teleconverter.

Sharp from any distance

Sharpness is outstanding throughout the field of view. Nikon's ED and Super ED glass locations minimize chromatic aberration from the center to the edge of the frame - even when shooting at open aperture or at close range.

Always in focus

The powerful VR, which achieves an effectiveness of 5.5 light value steps, enables freehand shots with longer exposure times without compromising sharpness. The closest focusing distance is just 0.75 m at the shortest focal length and 0.98  m at the longest.

Out of the shadow

ARNEO and Nanocrystal coatings are highly effective at reducing reflections for all angles of incidence, eliminating flare, ghosting and tailing effects around point light sources. Detail contrast is exceptional across the entire field of view, even when backlit.

Robust and durable

Stay on the safe side with a lens designed for outdoor use. Weather sealing keeps out dust and moisture, especially on the bayonet and all moving parts. The front lens features Nikon's Flour coating with non-stick properties that repel dust and moisture and are easy to clean.

Easy

The camera bag remains manageable - whether hiking to a raised hide or on the sidelines. Despite its versatile focal length range of 100 to 400 mm, this lens weighs only about 1.35 kg.

Balanced

This lens maintains its center of gravity when zooming. This allows for precise framing from wide-angle to telephoto. Ideal for shooting video with a gimbal.

Reliable

A bird in a tree. An airplane. This lens won't retract or adjust after zooming in. No locking is needed for this. Just point it up - and go!

Controlled

The extremely small zoom ring rotation angle of only 80° allows zooming from wide angle to maximum telephoto without changing the grip. Never miss an opportunity.

Triple precision

The zoom and focus rings provide just the right amount of rotational resistance. The slim, virtually silent adjustment ring is perfectly placed for smooth one-finger operation and can be used to set aperture, exposure compensation, or ISO sensitivity. 

Made for video

"Focus breathing" has been almost completely eliminated, so the angle of view remains constant when focusing. Aperture is controlled with high precision, providing natural adjustment of exposure within a setting.

Versatility at the touch of a button

Subject tracking, metering, bracketing and more: a wide range of different functions can be assigned to the lens' two function buttons. A versatility of operation familiar from Nikon DLSRs.
