About this item

  • Vibration Reduction: Achieves up to up to 6.0 stops of compensation, when used with the Z 9, Synchro VR combines the in-lens and in-camera VR image stabilization systems for maximum results. All other Z series cameras achieve VR up to 5.5 stops. (Based on CIPA Standard; in NORMAL mode; this value is achieved when attached to a mirrorless camera equipped with a 35mm film size image sensor.)
  • Autofocus: Autofocus is powered by Nikon's STM stepping motor, a highly efficient type of motor that moves in precise intervals at remarkable speed and in near silence, ideal for video and capturing skittish wildlife.
  • Extend the reach. Compatible with the Z series Teleconverter TC-1.4x and Teleconverter TC-2.0x for added reach.
  • Bokeh. The optical design of the NIKKOR Z 400mm f/4.5 VR S is optimized for a smooth bokeh effect that enhances the natural compression of 400mm.

    Nikon Z400 mm f4.5
    If you are looking for prime lens for your new z system camera, dont hesitate to get the nikon z 400mm f4.5. This lens is lightweight, has full weathersealing, and is ridiculously sharp. Sure, if you have an unlimited budget then go for one of the 10,000+ dollar super primes. I'm sure that those are great as well. But for the rest of us mere mortals, this z400, while not exactly cheap, is an awesome value in my opinion. I love this lens!
