DX-format telephoto zoom lens that enables the capture of diverse scenes beautifully with a single lens utilizing a wide zoom range and superior VR effect
With a zoom range from medium-telephoto 50 mm to telephoto 250 mm, picture-taking utilizing telephoto effect is enabled for a greater variety of scenes. Superior resolution achieved with a large-diameter Z mount, is reliably provided from the maximum aperture regardless of focal-length range or shooting distance.
Benefits
Despite being a telephoto zoom lens, you can get as close to subject as 0.5 m (at maximum wide-angle position), enabling the capture of impressive close-up shots including tabletop photography.
With a superior VR effect equivalent to a shutter speed 5.0 stops faster, the maximum in the history of NIKKOR interchangeable lenses, image blur is effectively compensated even in telephoto low-light shooting.
Genuine movie recording performance is achieved by intensive consideration even of details such as focus-breathing compensation and minimized operational sound.
Easy-to-operate control ring to which various functions such as focus (M/A), ISO sensitivity, aperture or exposure compensation can be assigned facilitates comfortable still and movie shooting.
The adoption of a retractable-lens mechanism that shortens the length when stored ensures remarkable agility.
