A High-performance telephoto zoom lens that combines Nikon's most advanced features and specifications with remarkable value.

 Main Features

• 4.3x, 70-300mm telephoto zoom (picture angle, when used with Nikon DX format digital SLRs is equivalent to a 105-450mm on a 35mm format SLR)
• The VR minimizes camera shake by offering the equivalent of a shutter speed 2.5 stops* faster. Normal and Active modes are available
  • Based on CIPA Standard. This value is achieved when attached to an FX-format digital SLR camera, with zoom set at the maximum telephoto position.
• Two ED glass elements
• The SWM enables fast and quiet autofocusing, and smooth switching between autofocus and manual operation
• Two focus modes are available — M/A and M
• The IF design provides a constant lens length and eliminates rotation of the front lens element, facilitating the use of circular polarizing filters
• Nine-blade rounded diaphragm opening
