Nikon 600mm f 4E FL ED VR AF-S Nikkor SLR Lens Employing two flourite lens elements & a host of high performance technologies, Nikon have realised the worlds lightest FX compatible 500mm & 600mm f/4 Super-Telephoto lenses. Key features are: • Employs Fluorite Lens Elements To Achieve A Light Body & High Optical Performance (800 -1250g Lighter than previous models) • Improved AF Tracking For Continuous Shooting Of Subjects With Unpredictable Movement • Electromagnetic Diaphragm Mechanism Enables Stable Auto-Exposure Control. •3 ED Glass Elements Prevent Chromatic Aberration •A Fluorine Coat Repels Dust & Water Droplets From The Lens Surface. •NORMAL VR System Improvement Up To 4.0 Stops • Sport Mode VR Mode Included (For use on Monopods & Tripods) Model improvements: New 600mm f/4: Min Focus distance 4.4m Flourite elements 2 VR (CIPA Standard) 4.0 stops Diaphragm contol: Electromagnetic control Weight 3810g Old 600mm f/4: Min Focus distance 5m Flourite elements None VR (CIPA Standard) 2.5 stops Diaphragm contol: Mechanical Control Weight 5060g Further
Details: Extreme reach. stunning clarity. With an incredibly lightweight build & the latest lens technologies, this fast 600mm super-telephoto shifts the balance for wildlife & sports photographers. Two fluorite elements enhance optical performance, & substantially reduce the weight of the lens to just 3810 g. The fast f/4 maximum aperture & advanced optics ensure outstanding precision. Professional super-telephoto: 600mm focal length & fast f/4 maximum aperture. Robust & light: fluorite elements help reduce the weight of this super-telephoto lens to just 3810 g (approx.). Lightweight, rugged & reliable, the body boasts a professional-grade dust- & moisture-resistant construction. High optical performance: two fluorite elements, four extra-low dispersion (ED) glass elements, & Nikon’s Nano Crystal Coat ensure minimal chromatic aberration & ghosting. Vibration Reduction (VR): with SPORT mode. VR minimises camera shake & lets you shoot at shutter speeds up to four stops slower.¹ SPORT VR mode delivers a stable viewfinder image when shooting high-speed movement, & allows a continuous shooting frame rate & release time lag similar to those that are achievable when VR is turned off. Electromagnetic diaphragm: enables consistent, more precise exposures during high-speed bursts. Silent Wave Motor (SWM): ultra-fast, ultra-quiet autofocus performance with seamless manual override. Focus limit switch: offers two positions: FULL & 8
- 10 m. Fluorine coating: actively repels water, dust, & dirt without compromising image quality. The coating is applied to the protective glass on the front element of the lens, where it also makes it easier to clean the glass without damaging the surface. Minimum focus distance: 4.4 m Tripod mount ring: new bearings improve durability, & ensure smooth switching between horizontal & vertical orientation. The mount is positioned close to the rear of the lens to ensure comfortable transportation, & allow the included one-piece hood to be reversed. Short monopod collar included: for more stability when using a monopod. Included CT-608 case: sturdy yet lightweight trunk case with fold-in handle that makes it easy to stack.
