Major features

•By enabling vibration reduction (VR), slower shutter speeds (approximately four stops*) can be used, thus increasing the range of usable shutter speeds and zoom positions, particularly when hand-holding the

camera. (*Based on results achieved under Nikon measurement conditions. The effects of vibration

En reduction may vary according to shooting conditions and use.)

•This lens employs a Silent Wave Motor to drive the focusing mechanism, making autofocusing smooth,

silent and almost instantaneous. The focus mode switch dis provided for simple selection of

autofocus (A) or manual focus (M) operation.

•More accurate exposure control is possible when this is mounted on a Nikon camera with 3D color matrix metering capability, because subject distance information is transferred from the lens to the camera body.

•The use of three aspherical and two extra-low dispersion (ED) lens elements ensures sharp pictures virtually free of color fringing. Also, the seven-bladed diaphragm produces a nearly-circular aperture, a feature which causes out-of-focus areas of the picture to become soft and unobtrusive.
