Uncover exciting new photo and video opportunities with this exceptional super-telephoto zoom lens featuring Nikon's Vibration Reduction (VR) image stabilization for blur-free results. Optimized for high-resolution DX-format DSLRs, it picks up where an 18–55mm kit lens leaves off and brings faraway subjects into close focus. Capture sports, wildlife, concerts, landmarks and more with phenomenal clarity and precision. Its superb optics and telephoto field of view produce beautiful portraits with softly blurred backgrounds, and its near-silent autofocus pulse motor (utilizing stepping motors) and VR make it a great choice for HD video recording.
