Nikon AF-S 500/4.0G FL ED VR-Nikon CH 3 years warranty

It is a real workhorse, both on the race track and in the great outdoors. The high speed of 1:4 combined with advanced optics ensures outstanding results. Two fluorite lenses provide better imaging performance, significantly lighter weight and improved handling balance. Nikon's image stabilizer enables blur-free shooting even at 4 EV longer exposure times, while the SPORT mode plays to its strengths when tracking the focus of fast-moving subjects. Electromagnetic iris control ensures consistent exposure results even at high continuous shooting rates. Fluorine coating enhances durability.

Key Features:

• Professional super telephoto lens: 500 mm focal length and high speed of 1:4.
• Robust and lightweight: the fluorite lenses make this super telephoto lens particularly lightweight (approx. 3,090 g). The lightweight, robust and reliable tube is designed to meet professional demands and is elaborately sealed against the ingress of dust and water.
• High imaging performance: two fluorite and three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass lenses and Nikon's Nano Crystal Coat minimize chromatic aberration and ghosting.
• Image Stabilizer (VR): with SPORT mode. The image stabilizer compensates for camera shake and allows sharp shots with exposure times up to 4 EV longer.¹ The "SPORT" VR mode enables a steady viewfinder image when shooting fast-moving subjects. The shutter lag and frame rate in continuous shooting hardly differ from the values when the image stabilizer is switched off.
• Electromagnetic Iris Control: For smooth, more precise exposure results even at high continuous shooting rates.
• Silent Wave Motor (SWM): Extremely fast, ultra-quiet autofocus allows seamless transition to manual focus.
• Focus range restriction switch: Two options are available: "FULL" as well as "8 m" Fluorine coating: Actively repels water, dust and dirt without compromising image quality. The fluorine coating is applied to the outer surface of the protective glass in front of the front lens. This reduces the risk of scratching the surface when cleaning the glass.
• Close focus distance: 3.6 m
• Tripod adapter ring: new heavy-duty bearing ensures smooth switching between portrait and landscape modes. The tripod attaches close to the back of the lens for convenient transport, and a one-piece hood can be attached to the lens in the inverted position.
• Short monopod adapter (included): Provides greater stability when using a monopod.
• Case CT-505 (included): Rugged yet lightweight case with retractable handle for easy stacking.
