Nikon 200mm f/2G AF-S ED-IF Vibration Reduction (VR) Autofocus Lens Nikon USA Factory Demo Mint Condition One Year Full Warranty The Nikon 200mm f/2G AF-S ED-IF VR Autofocus lens offers a variety of applications for all kinds of photographers. Many will find uses for its expressive quality of emphasizing subjects in portraits by rendering background elements completely out of focus, while others will use it for its large aperture, superb clarity and immense potential with VR technology for shooting in low light conditions or from moving platforms. The AF-S VR Nikkor 200mm is crafted from Super ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass - a significant material that is more resilient than typical fluorite lenses and offers class-above optical qualities with exceptional consistency even at large apertures. With an ideal combination of Vibration Reduction (VR) technology and fast f/2.0 aperture, this lens is designed to offer photographers razor sharp images in the most demanding situations. Nikon's advanced VR technology eliminates image blur caused by camera shake, particularly when shooting in low-light conditions, allowing photographers to use shutter speeds up to three stops slower (8x) than they would ordinarily use to get sharp, well exposed images. Key Features Super-ED Glass for Superb Clarity: Nikon's Super ED glass elements excel at correcting chromatic aberration and eliminating secondary spectrum to produce outstanding image resolution and clarity. While the optical properties of this new glass closely resemble those of fluorite, Super ED glass is more resilient to rapid temperature changes (thermal shock) and not as susceptible to cracking as the crystal structure of fluorite. Super ED glass also boasts a higher refractive index than fluorite, making it highly capable of correcting aberrations other than chromatic aberration. It also demonstrates less change in optical characteristics than fluorite when exposed to severe temperature variance, ensuring consistent performance even under extremely harsh shooting conditions. Additionally, the unique composition of Super ED glass ensures consistency in optical properties and performance, enabling applications in a variety of lenses including those with very large apertures. Intelligent Design: The AF-S VR Nikkor 200mm f/2G IF-ED lens incorporates clever new features that are placed within comfortable reach of photographers' natural grip, helping them keep their eye on the subject. A switch located on the bottom of the lens gives swift access to the AF-L (Autofocus-Lock) function, which allows a desired focus position to be easily preset. The same switch can also be used to access the AF-ON function enabling photographers to achieve more subjective focus with fine manual manipulation. The switch can also activate the lens to revert back to the preset focus position whenever desired. Vibration Reduction Technology: With a maximum aperture of f/2, the AF-S VR Nikkor 200mm f/2G IF-ED is a very fast lens that when combined with the advantages of VR technology, offers photographers remarkable shooting capabilities that may not have been previously possible. Nikon's advanced VR technology eliminates image blur caused by camera shake, particularly when shooting in low-light conditions, allowing photographers to use shutter speeds up to three stops slower than they would ordinarily use to get sharp, well exposed images. VR performance is further augmented in the AF-S VR Nikkor 200mm f/2G IF-ED by a VR selection switch that enables photographers to choose between two different VR modes to best suit the subject at hand - Normal mode is ideal for most common shooting conditions, panning, and use in combination with a tripod. Active mode, as its name suggests, is better suited to conditions involving more movement, such as shooting from a moving vehicle or platform. Fast f/2.0 capability allows subjects to be given more emphasis by throwing background elements out of focus Internal Focusing (IF) design for smoother focusing and better body balance Built-in M/A switch on side of lens enables instant switching from autofocus to manual focus Silent Wave Motor (SWM) for ultra-fast, ultra-quiet AF The rounded diaphragm (9 blades) makes out-of-focus elements appear more natural Will mount to ANY Nikon Digital SLR Camera Including: Nikon D3s, D3x, D3, D700, D300, D200, D90, D80, D70, D70S, D50, D100, D2X, D2Xs, D2H, D2Hs **D5000, D3000, D60, D40 & D40x will work without Autofocus.** What is a Nikon Factory Demo?
