Whether you shoot with an FX- or DX-format camera, handheld or tripod-mounted, the AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/4G ED VR delivers the serious telephoto zoom performance you've been seeking.

AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/4G ED VR primary features

• A 70-200mm telephoto zoom lens compatible with the FX format that offers consistently superior rendering with focusing from infinity to close-up.
• Built-in vibration reduction (VR) offering camera shake compensation equivalent to a five-step increase in shutter speed for effective hand-held shooting in a variety of situations.
• Nano Crystal Coat, which effectively prevents the internal reflections that cause ghost and flare.
• A Silent Wave Motor (SWM) for extremely quiet autofocusing.
• Equipped with two focus modes: A/M (autofocus with manual override) and M (manual focus).
• Macro photography possible with a closest focusing distance of 1 m.
• Smaller and lighter than Nikon's previous 70-200mm lens, yet still capable of the superior image quality, performance, and overall quality expected of a NIKKOR lens.
• Autofocus supported when a teleconverter offering 2x magnification is used with the lens on a D4, D800, D800E, or D600 offering f/8 support.
