Product Information

An electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism in the lens barrel provides highly accurate electronic diaphragm or aperture blade control when using auto exposure during continuous shooting. As the longest fixed-aperture zoom in the current NIKKOR line up, the new NIKKOR 200-500mm also boasts the latest generation of Nikon’s Vibration Reduction (VR) technology. However, if you're used to lenses such as the 70-300mm or the 300mm PF, the Nikon 200-500mm will undoubtedly feel heavier in comparison.

This feature is compatible with newer cameras; however, with older DSLR cameras, an aperture is fixed to f/5. However, some parts are made up of plastic, making the lens construction not as rock-solid as pro-grade lenses.

still feature mechanical diaphragms using an aperture lever on the lens mount – those lenses were probably in the making for a long while. One of the most significant advantages of using the Nikon 200-500mm lens on a crop sensor (DX) body like the Nikon D500 – Nikon's top crop sensor camera for wildlife photography – is its increased reach. As a word of caution, never let lenses this heavy just dangle off the camera mount, as applying too much pressure might tilt or damage the camera mount and potentially even break it. For the rest of us we are generally restricted to where we can go at major events, so our lens has to do the walking to get the same picture . Normal mode works fine for me while hand-holding the lens on the ground, and also in the safari vehicle.

While you adjust your aperture for image sharpness also ensure you have enough shutter speed to freeze the action. When traveling, one can lock the lens at its shortest length of 200mm using a switch on the side of the lens barrel, as pictured below. Indeed, you can barely get from 200mm to 300mm without having to change your hand position from shooting ready.In some ways, it’s more illustrative to consider what is missing from the 200-500mm: no Nano coating, no drop-in filters, and no stated weather-sealing. IThe lens's minimum focusing distance (MFD) is the shortest distance between the lens and an object at which it can achieve perfect focus.
