Zurab Kiknadze, Product Manager Lenses, Accessories and Software, Nikon Europe says: "The updates and improvements implemented in the new version of this highly regarded 200mm lens bring it in line with the latest Nikkor technologies, providing even more shooting comfort and stability while delivering outstanding results."
Nikon 200mm lens for professional photographers
The update of this popular lens follows the feedback from professional photographers. The improved handling and usability combined with outstanding image quality is testament to Nikon’s commitment to meet the needs of professional photographers and to continually improve its line-up of professional, high-performance Nikkor lenses.
Nikon AF-S 200mm lens - Vibration reduction and Aufofocus
The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 200mm f/2G ED VR II now features second generation Vibration Reduction technology (VR II), which provides compensation equivalent to a shutter speed four stops faster, making it easier to capture sharp images during hand-held shooting. The system incorporates two modes: Normal for general handheld shooting and Active to compensate for the vibration caused by, for example, moving vehicles. The Silent Wave Motor (SMW) ensures quiet and accurate autofocus performance, so it won’t disturb the subject or event. The A/M mode has been added to the existing M/A and M modes. This additional focusing mode allows you to use autofocus priority, even if the focus ring is being handled during shooting.
Nikon AF-S Nikkor 200mm lens construction
The lens construction of 13 elements in nine groups with three ED glass and one Super ED glass elements, together with Nikon’s unique Nano Crystal Coat, ensures highest-quality images. The ED glass construction delivers the sharp and contrast-rich images you have come to expect from Nikkor lenses and the Nano Crystal Coat effectively reduces ghost and flare, meaning you can use the lens with confidence, even when shooting into the light. The lens also stands out because of its pleasing bokeh and subject-background separation, due to its large f/2 aperture combined with a rounded nine-blade diaphragm.
Nikon 200mm lens with durable magnesium body
The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 200mm f/2G ED VR II is built to meet the stringent demands of the professional photographer. The durable magnesium body and weather sealing means it’s the right lens for even the toughest of shooting conditions, keeping out moisture and dust. For extra peace of mind, Nikon’s exclusive, detachable meniscus glass protects the large front glass element from accidental scratches.
Nikon 200mm lens price & availability & accessories
The lens is fully compatible with all current Nikon teleconverters, increasing its versatility by allowing for extended tele reach.
