Product Description

 
The AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G IF-ED lens features Nikon`s Extra Low Dispersion (ED) glass, Silent Wave Motor (SWM) and enhanced Vibration Reduction (VRII) to ensure the best images. Optics have also been perfected for use with both Nikon DX format digital and 35mm film SLR cameras. The Zoom-Nikkor lens offers 70-300mm (4.3x) zoom performance, and is suitable for various telephoto shooting opportunities, particularly in sports, nature and wildlife photography. When used with a Nikon DX format digital SLR, the picture angle is equivalent to what would be experienced with a 105-450mm lens on a 35mm. SLR Advanced Nikon engineering has given rise to a compact lightweight lens design that offers outstanding optical performance and excellent handling characteristics. The new Nikon Vibration Reduction (VRII) system enables users to take substantially sharper handheld pictures at slower shutter speeds approximately 4 stops slower* than would otherwise be possible.

Nikon 70-300 A New Version of an Old Standby

Date of Review:  Apr 28, 2000
The Bottom Line: Nikon's update of the venerable 75-300 Nikkor is a bit lighter, a bit faster, and has better resolution.
Review: The recently introduced Nikkor 70-300 f4.0-5.6 ED AF-D lens replaces one of Nikon's most popular consumer zooms, the 75-300 f4.5-5.6. The old model 75-300 was much loved by backpackers, hikers, cyclists, and travelers because of the wide range of...

Review: This lens certainly has a lot going for it. Aside from the obvious, Nikon made, it is light and easily fits into the portable gadget bag. It is easy to focus and maintain sharp images even without a tripod at the 300mm setting in any daylight...

Date of Review:  Jul 31, 2005
Review: Having recently bought a Nikon D2X camera I became aware that my 70 - 300mm G lense was not producing crisp, contrasty pictures, particularly at 300mm and in relatively poor light, using a tripod. Well the 70 - 300mm ED zoom lense arrived to-day and...

Nikon 70-300mm f4.5-5.6 G AF-S VR IF-ED Lens
The AF-S VR 70-300 f/4.5-5.6G IF-ED is a high-performance super telephoto zoom lens that has been designed to meet the demands of both digital and 35mm format SLR users. It offers a 4.3x zoom with a range of 70-300mm (105-450mm on a DX Nikon D-SLR) and features ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements that ensure superior optical performance. This lens incorporates Nikon’s second- generation vibration reduction system (VR II) that allows flexible hand-held shooting by stabilizing the image to the equivalent extent of using a shutter speed that is four stops faster when compared with a conventional lens (as determined by Nikon performance test). The SWM (Silent Wave Motor) and IF (Internal Focusing) ensure fast and quiet focusing action, and the nine-blade rounded diaphragm makes out-of-focus elements blend smoothly to produce natural-looking, harmonious backgrounds. Nikon HB-36 lens hood included.
