Nikon 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR AF-S Lens

Extend your reach with just one lens

With a 200–500mm focal-length range and constant f/5.6 aperture, this FX-format super-telephoto lens delivers incredible flexibility. Benefit from unwavering performance whether you shoot wildlife, birds, planes, or fast-paced sports.

Nikon’s impressive Vibration Reduction system dramatically reduces blur—especially when shooting towards the super-telephoto end of the zoom range. You can shoot at shutter speeds up to 4.5 stops slower, great for capturing dramatic shots during the ‘golden hour’.¹ And SPORT VR mode lets you track the action with incredible clarity. This mode delivers a stable viewfinder image, which is helpful when shooting exceptionally fast action, or when panning.

Performance is superb thanks to an optical construction featuring three extra-low-dispersion (ED) glass elements. ED glass counters chromatic aberration for images with vivid colour and perfectly rendered contrast all the way to the edge of the frame.
