Nikons super-telephoto lenses are renowned amongst pro photographers for their sharpness, colour accuracy and contrast.thanks to their Extra Low Dispersion (ED) glass and Nano Crystal coatings. This lens also features Nikon’s Vibration Reduction (VR) system which combined with it’s fast f2.8 maximum aperture allows it to be hand-held at lower shutter speeds than you would normally expect from a lens of this focal length.
