Description - Nikon 70-300mm F4.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor Lens
New Lens Offers Enhanced Nikon
VR (VRII) Vibration Reduction System in a Compact, 4.3x Zoom Lens for Nikon DX
Format Digital and
35mm Film SLR Cameras
Nikon introduced the new
Nikon 70-300mm F4.5-5.6G Lens, a 4.3x zoom lens that is ideal
for telephoto shooting opportunities. Nikon 70-300mm F4.5-5.6G VR
Zoom-Nikkor Lens incorporates many of Nikon's most advanced lens design
attributes such as Extra Low Dispersion (ED) glass, Silent Wave Motor technology
(SWM) and Enhanced Vibration Reduction (VR II), in a design engineered for use
with both Nikon DX format digital and
35mm film SLR cameras. With a high-powered Nikon 70-300mm
F/4.5-5.6G Lens focal length range, the lens is ideal for sports,
action, wildlife, travel and portrait photography, among other telephoto
applications. When used on a Nikon DX format
digital SLR, Nikon 70-300 mm F4.5-5.6G VR Zoom-Nikkor
Lens approximates the picture angle performance of a 105-450mm lens on a 35mm
SLR camera.
"Nikon's range of Nikkor lenses with Vibration Reduction technology has grown
substantially and the new Nikon 70-300mm F4.5-5.6G
ED-IF AF-S Lens is another excellent addition, offering both Nikon digital and
35mm SLR photographers an advanced high-powered zoom lens in a surprisingly
compact, lightweight design," said Edward Fasano, general manager for Marketing,
SLR Systems Products, at Nikon Inc. "High quality lens design requires a
challenging blend of art, science and, of course, photographic experience. With
the new Nikon 70-300mm F4.5-5.6G VR Zoom-Nikkor Lens,
Nikon engineers have again met that challenge, producing a lens whose optical
performance delivers clarity and contrast typically found only in lenses costing
substantially more," he added.
Beyond the Nikon
70-300mm F4.5-5.6G Lens incredible optical versatility is the
benefit of Enhanced VR II Vibration Reduction -- an innovation that makes it
possible to take substantially sharper handheld pictures at slower shutter
speeds than would otherwise be possible. This provides the distinct advantage of
being able to shoot more effectively in a much broader variety of challenging
conditions. With the new Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G VR
Zoom-Nikkor Lens the VR advantage, users can take pictures at shutter speeds as
many as 4 stops slower* than they ordinarily could shoot without the image
degrading blur associated with camera shake at slow shutter speeds. Nikon's
advanced VR technology further enhances picture taking potential with a choice
of two modes to match most shooting conditions with Nikon 70-300mm
F4.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S Lens. VR Normal Mode primarily compensates
for camera shake, and includes automatic panning detection, as well as automatic
tripod detection. VR Active Mode effectively compensates for vibration in
situations where it is more pronounced and more frequent, such as when shooting
from a moving vehicle.
To further ensure outstanding
optical performance, the Nikon 70-300mm F4.5-5.6G VR
Zoom-Nikkor Lens features two Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements and three
complex aspherical lens elements that provide for higher resolution,
high-contrast images while minimizing chromatic aberration, astigmatism and
other forms of distortion. The Nikon
70-300mm F4.5-5.6G Lens also features Nikon's compact Silent
Wave Motor technology (SWM), which combines fast and precise auto focusing with
super-quiet operation, as well as Internal Focusing (IF) construction that
allows the Nikon 70-300mm F4.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S Lens to
focus without changing its external size, improving balance and handling
characteristics.

The highly expected
Nikon VR Lenses are professional-grade lenses that is
specifically designed for portraits, studio
and wedding photographers who need an ultra-fast, quality lenses with a large
aperture for low-light circumstances.
VR technology remove image blur caused by camera wobble, mainly when shooting in
low-light conditions, permitting
photographers to use shutter speeds up to three stops slower than they would
normally use to obtain sharp, well
exposed images.
Prime lenses, are smaller, lighter and more compact than zoom lenses and tend to
be faster, offering wide apertures of
f/2.8, f/1.8 or even f/1.4. The large apertures let in more light, which
benefits the photographer in a number of ways.
Nikon Macro lenses ensure superior optical performance even at close distances
that allows you to you take photographs
that are 1:2 or 1:1 reproduction, which is ½ life size to life size respectively
without the need for any additional
accessories. It has both AF (Auto-focus) and MF (manual focus) mechanism. Nikon
Macro lenses features IF "Internal Focusing" mechanism for quiet and smooth
Auto Focus, yet the length of the Lens doesn't change during AF.
Nikon's Micro-NIKKOR lenses are designed to perform their best from infinity all
the way down to their closest
focusing distances. Moving in extremely close to the subject using a Micro-NIKKOR
lens lets you to fill the entire
frame with your subject, allowing you to expand your artistic vision.
Nikon Zoom lenses offers high-performance features in a solid body. Additionally
they possess the shortest closest-focusing distance in its class - 0.33m throughout the entire zoom range. Nikon
Zoom lenses are perfect for
photojournalism and other all-purpose photographic needs.
These elements convey an "authentic ambience" to its owner, and are passed from
yesterday to today, and from today to
tomorrow, with the aim of bringing greater joy of visual expression to people
who take photos.
