Edge-to-edge brilliance
The superior resolving power of this full-frame lens ensures crisp, high-resolution images throughout the zoom range, even when shooting wide open.
Extra-low dispersion (ED) glass counters chromatic aberration for images with vivid colour and perfectly rendered contrast all the way to the edge of the frame. The nine-blade rounded diaphragm enables even, natural-looking bokeh.
Superior control
Built to partner Nikon’s fast DSLRs, this lens responds swiftly and precisely. An electromagnetic diaphragm ensures precise exposures at high frame rates.
A/M and M/A focus mode switches inherited from Nikon’s professional lenses make it possible to control manual-focus override simply by turning the focus ring. The preferred option of sports photographers, M/A mode allows switching with virtually no time lag. The A/M focus mode is less sensitive to prevent unintentionally switching to manual mode. Both the focus ring and the zoom ring boast a knurled covering that enables a firm grip for smooth control.
