The New AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/4E FL ED VR is the ultimate lens for nature and sports photography. The new version is now 2 pounds lighter that the previous 500mm, making it easier to carry into the field and move with down the sideline. Its electromagnetic diaphragm makes sure the lens fires quickly and accurately. Offering several VR modes to accommodate your shooting situation, you can be confident that even in low light and in tough conditions you’re getting the shot with up to 4 stops of correction. Even if you’re using a teleconverter the electromagnetic diaphragm works flawlessly with the lens’s autofocus tracking and camera’s auto exposure modes for consistent images. Whether you’re on Safari or photographing a fast paced sport, the AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/4E FL ED VR is an excellent choice.
