Nikon Introduces a 70-200mm Telephoto Zoom Lens That Delivers Consistent Superior Rendering That Focuses From Infinity to Close-up

DUBAI, UAE, October 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/4G ED VR

    Nikon Corporation will delight the world of photography with the latest addition to
the telephoto zoom lens family: the AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/4G ED VR. Compatible with the
Nikon FX format, it covers the 70-200mm range of focal lengths with a fixed maximum
aperture of f/4.

    The AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/4G ED VR joins the ultra wide-angle AF-S NIKKOR 16-35mm
f/4G ED VR and normal zoom AF-S NIKKOR 24-120mm f/4G ED VR in f/4

    maximum aperture lens series that forms the core of NIKKOR FX-format lenses.

    Despite covering the 70mm to 200mm range of focal lengths, it boasts a closest
focusing distance of approximately one meter, as well as consistently superior rendering
with focusing from infinity to close-up, making it an excellent lens for a wide variety of
scenes. Its compact size and light weight make it portable, offering a practical choice
for hand-held shooting wherever needed. It adopts a number of exclusive Nikon technologies
including Nano Crystal Coat that prevents internal reflections that cause ghost and flare,
a built-in Vibration Reduction (VR) system that provides camera shake compensation
equivalent to a five-step increase in shutter speed, and a Silent Wave Motor (SWM) for
extremely quiet autofocusing.

    With the release of the new Nikon D4, Nikon D800 and D800E, and Nikon D600 FX-format
digital-SLR cameras in 2012, Nikon continues to develop high-performance NIKKOR lenses
that make the most of the superior resolution and image quality offered by these cameras.
Nikon will continue to respond to the demands and expectations of the photographers for
more advanced photographic capabilities by releasing highly functional, high-performance
lenses to expand and strengthen the NIKKOR lineup.
