VR and Sports & Action Lenses

A rock-steady camera is essential to capturing tack-sharp sports and action shots, and Nikon’s exclusive Vibration Reduction technology offers the perfect solution for reducing the image blur caused by camera shake. It provides you with increased “hand-holdability,” delivering dramatically sharper images in a wide range of conditions.

Using a teleconverter is an affordable option when you want to increase your photographic reach without having to purchase a super-telephoto lens. A teleconverter is basically a magnifying lens that is placed between the camera body and lens giving you a greater telephoto effect than a lens alone.
