Product Description

Whether shooting in sports venues or outside at night, the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 120-300mm f/2.8E FL ED SR VR Lens excels with its extraordinary resolving power and AF performance. This remarkable lens also marks the introduction of a much-anticipated focal length range. Now, DSLR photographers who want to shoot at 300 mm no longer need to be tied to a single focal length. Nor do they need to risk optical performance by using a zoom lens with a teleconverter attached.


Key Features of the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 120-300mm f/2.8E FL ED SR VR Lens

  • Improved communication between camera and lens.
  • Professional, stress-free operability.
  • Powerful Vibration Reduction (VR) with SPORT mode.
  • All-new SR (Short-wavelength Refractive) technology

Zoom flexibility. Prime performance.

A refined optical architecture gives the AF-S NIKKOR 120-300mm staggering image-rendering properties with quality and resolution one might expect from a 300mm prime. One ED glass element, two Fluorite lens elements and a newly developed SR (Short-wavelength Refractive) lens element work together for brilliantly detailed shots with exceptional colour rendering. In addition, ghosting and flare are effectively minimized through the application of innovative ARNEO and Nano Crystal Coats, for sharp, clear images even when a light source is in the frame

All-new SR (Short-wavelength Refractive) technology

Chromatic aberration is a common lens anomaly that occurs when varying wavelengths of light fail to collect at the same point, resulting in colour fringing. Specifically, short-wavelength light can be difficult to compensate for. The newly developed SR lens element is a high- and specialized-dispersion glass with breakthrough light-refracting properties that specifically target shorter colour wavelengths like blues and violets for highly precise chromatic aberration compensation

Impressive reach. Incredible speed. Absolute versatility.

Sixty years after the introduction of the iconic Nikon F Mount, the dependable mainstay of every stunning NIKKOR SLR lens since the AF-S NIKKOR 120-300mm f/2.8E FL ED SR VR brings a beautifully bright f/2.8 constant maximum aperture to the world of pro telephoto sports photography. A versatile zoom range with highly sought after speed and agility, glorious sharpness and bokeh for stunning fast action and portraiture with dazzling subject isolation

Professional, stress-free operability

The AF-S NIKKOR 120-300mm f/2.8E FL ED SR VR adopts controls and operability enhancements commonly found on Nikon's premiere telephoto and super-telephoto lenses. The zoom ring, focus function buttons, tripod collar ring and controls are all designed to ensure pro-calibre operability. A Fluorite lens element and magnesium alloy construction contribute to a lightweight, durable lens that covers the focal lengths of multiple lenses for nimble all-day shooting

Powerful Vibration Reduction (VR) with SPORT mode

Tack-sharp, action-charged sports shots are easier than ever with a powerful VR image stabilization, optimized for fast action with a SPORT mode option. With VR engaged, image vibration is significantly reduced, equivalent to a shutter speed 4.0 stops* faster. SPORT mode goes a step further, stabilizing subjects that change speed and direction quickly and unpredictably within the viewfinder for accurate shot composition

Dust and drips denied

With pro photographers in mind, the AF-S NIKKOR 120-300mm f/2.8E FL ED SR VR was built to withstand less than ideal shooting environments and harsh conditions. The lens body is well-sealed to keep dust and moisture out and the front lens surface features Nikon's fluorine coat to effectively repel dust and dirt for worry-free shooting on any assignment

Prime-rivaling AF performance

AF performance is paramount when photographing athletes and other fast-moving subjects at a distance. A newly-enhanced AF servo drive provides optimal autofocus power, resulting in incredibly accurate subject tracking, even for subjects that erratically change speed, for pro dependability shot after shot.

Improved communication between camera and lens

A specialized electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism electronically syncs with the camera and makes precise aperture adjustments for fast, consistently reliable exposure control, even during high-speed continuous shooting

Exhilarating precision

The constant f/2.8 aperture enables comfortable speed and smooth control over depth of field across the entire zoom range, giving you enough room to use 1.4x or 2.0x teleconverters without sacrificing AF performance

Rock steady

Nikon’s Vibration Reduction (VR) gives you a four-stop advantage, even with a teleconverter activated. VR starts up the moment you power on the camera. SPORT VR mode reliably tracks fast-moving subjects

Locked-on tracking

AF performance equivalent to a prime telephoto lens keeps pace with fast-moving subjects—even when they’re moving erratically. An electromagnetic diaphragm ensures precise exposures at high frame rates
