The new Nikon NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S promises wildlife, bird, and sports photographers a ton of reach in tandem with a remarkably portable design sure to please those who are used to carrying around massive supertelephoto primes. How does it hold up in practice? This excellent video review takes a look at the sort of performance and image quality you can expect from it in usage.
Coming to you from Jan Wegener, this great video review takes a look at the new Nikon NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S lens. Thanks to a Phase Fresnel element, the 600mm f/6.3 is remarkably portable, measuring less than a foot long and weighing just a little over 3 lbs. Other features include:
- 95mm filter thread for ability to use traditional filters
- Two extra-low dispersion elements and a short-wave refractive element for reduced chromatic aberrations
- Nano Crystal Coating for fewer flares and reduced ghosting and deeper contrast
- Vibration Reduction offering up to 5.5 stops of compensation
- Nikon Stepping Motor for quiet and fast autofocus
- Reduced focus breathing
- Two customizable function buttons, control ring, Memory Set button, and focus range switch
- Weather-sealed construction
