Nikon Announces the new AF-S NIKKOR 400mm f2.8E

Crafted to deliver precision at any speed, the new FX-format AF-S NIKKOR 400mm f/2.8E FL ED VR super telephoto lens is ideal for professional sports and news photographers who demand peak performance. 

Key Features: 

Fast super-telephoto lens: offers 400 mm focal length and fast f/2.8 maximum aperture

High optical performance: two fluorite and two ED (extra-low dispersion) glass elements ensure minimal chromatic aberration. The lens boasts a drop-in filter holder and is supplied with an NC filter.

Nano Crystal Coat: reduces ghosting and flare for greater image clarity, even in backlit situations.

Electromagnetic diaphragm: enables consistent exposures during high-speed bursts.

Vibration Reduction (VR): with SPORT mode. VR minimises camera shake and lets you shoot at shutter speeds up to four stops slower. SPORT VR mode delivers a stable viewfinder image when shooting high-speed movement, and allows a continuous shooting frame rate and release time lag similar to those that are possible when VR is turned off.

Fluorine coating: actively repels water, dust, and dirt without compromising image quality. The coating is applied to the meniscus protective glass on the front element of the lens.

Robust and light: fluorite elements help reduce the weight of this super-telephoto lens to approx. 3800 g (800g lighter than its predecessor). The body boasts a professional-grade dust- and moisture-resistant construction.
