Introduction

The AF-S Zoom-Nikkor ED 80-200mm f/2.8D IF employs a Silent Wave Motor inside the lens to drive the focusing mechanism, thus the "S" designation. As a result, autofocusing is smooth, silent, and almost instantaneous. In addition, this lens features internal focusing (IF), so there is no change in the overall length of the lens from infinity to its closest focusing distance of 1.5m (4.9 ft.), contributing to balanced hand-held operation. Moreover, five ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lens elements are used to produce images that are sharp from center to edges and virtually free of color fringing, regardless of the focal length setting.

Note: This lens offers Silent Wave autofocusing with Nikon F5, F4-Series, F90X-Series/N90s", F90-Series/N90*, F70-Series/N70", Pronea 6001/61*

and Pronea S cameras.

* Sold exclusively in the US
