Professional, fast-aperture super telephoto lens, now enhanced with Nikon VR II image stabilization and featuring Nano Crystal Coat, is an ideal choice for sports photography, live performance shooting, wildlife and more.

Features:

• Fast-aperture f/2.8 NIKKOR Super Telephoto - Wide aperture, professional telephoto performance, optimized for edge-to-edge sharpness for both FX and DX-format Nikon D-SLRs—perfect for action and sports photojournalism, wildlife photography and more.

• Nikon Super Integrated Coating (SIC) - Enhances light transmission efficiency and offers superior color consistency and reduced flare.
• AF Memory Recall - Allows instant return to a predetermined point of focus.
• Rugged Construction - Featuring enhanced dust and moisture-resistance, magnesium die-cast barrel construction and a protective meniscus front lens.
• Close Focusing to 7.2 feet - Focus to 7.2 feet in manual focus or 7.5 feet in autofocus, enabling striking image perspectives.
• Rounded 9-Blade Diaphragm - Renders more natural appearance of out-of-focus image areas.
