Because capturing distant subjects with precision and clarity is a necessity for many photographers, the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR lens offers an exceptional solution. This compact super-telephoto zoom lens is a powerful tool for FX and DX-format photographers, delivering an impressive zoom range and razor-sharp image quality. Ideal for photographing birds, sports events, wildlife, and motorsports, this lens allows you to bring far-off subjects closer, offering a maximum reach of 500mm on FX-format Nikon cameras and an astounding 750mm equivalent reach on DX-format cameras. With a maximum aperture of f/5.6, it enables photographers to fill a significant portion of the frame with their subject, creating a pleasing background blur even in challenging lighting conditions. The lens features Nikon's Electromagnetic Aperture for consistent exposures, and VR with 4.5 stops of image stabilization. The VR also includes a Sport Mode, perfect for capturing sharp, vibrant images of distant subjects at high frame rates or when panning with fast-moving action. The NIKKOR 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR lens also offers a close focus distance of 7.2 ft. across the entire focal range, allowing you to capture intricate details of nature or unexpected action up close. Despite its powerful capabilities, this lens is surprisingly lightweight at just 5 lbs 1.2 oz. (2300 grams), including the tripod collar, making it easy to use handheld for extended periods. For photographers seeking even more reach, the zoom power can be increased using optional compatible Nikon 1.4x, 1.7x, or 2x E series Teleconverters, enabling you to capture even the most distant subjects. The lens's optical formula includes three ED elements to enhance sharpness and minimize chromatic aberration, while a 9-blade aperture provides a smooth, desirable bokeh. Nikon's Silent Wave Motor technology ensures quick and quiet focus acquisition. This bundle also includes a Slinger Camera Backpack, a ProOptic 95mm Filter Kit, Lens Cleaner, a Cleaning Kit, and a Lens Cap Tether, providing you with all the essentials you need for a successful photography session..
