Nikon 120-300mm f2.8E AF-S FL ED SR VR Lens

The Nikon 120-300mm f2.8E AF-S FL ED SR VR Lens is a tough pro-grade, F-mount telephoto zoom lens delivering optical performance equivalent to a prime lens. It uses Nikon’s new SR glass as well as ED glass to combat chromatic aberration. As a result, colour fringing is greatly reduced, and harder-to-control blue light (short wavelength spectrum) is thoroughly compensated for. Images are sharper than ever before and contrast is exceptional. The lens is fully weather-sealed and ready to withstand the rigours of daily professional use. The integrated tripod foot faces the front of the lens for optimum balance.

Precision
The constant f/2.8 aperture enables comfortable speed and smooth control over depth of field across the entire zoom range, giving you enough room to use 1.4x or 2.0x teleconverters without sacrificing AF performance.

Vibration Reduction
Nikon’s Vibration Reduction (VR) gives you a four-stop advantage, even with a teleconverter activated. VR starts up the moment you power on the camera. SPORT VR mode reliably tracks fast-moving subjects.

Locked-on tracking
AF performance equivalent to a prime telephoto lens keeps pace with fast-moving subjects—even when they’re moving erratically. An electromagnetic diaphragm ensures precise exposures at high frame rates.

Extrordinary contrast
The Nikon 120-300mm f2.8E AF-S FL ED SR VR Lens is the first lens to utilise both Nikon’s ED and SR glass to combat chromatic aberration and coma. Harder-to-control blue light (short wavelength spectrum) is now compensated, giving sharper images and better contrast. Colour fringing is greatly reduced even when shooting at the widest maximum aperture.

Integrated tripod foot
The integrated tripod foot faces the front of the lens for optimum balance and more comfortable transportation when the lens is attached to a tripod.

Weatherproof design
This telephoto zoom lens is fully weather-sealed and ready to withstand the rigours of daily professional use. The fluorine coating repels water, dust, and dirt without compromising image quality.
