The super-telephoto lens is also equipped with an electro-magnetic aperture mechanism that contributes to better auto-exposure stability with high-speed continuous shooting, and a vibration reduction (VR) function that offers compensation for camera shake equivalent to a 4.0-stopincrease in shutter speed. In additional, the lens is equipped with a Sport vibration reduction mode optimized for tracking fast-moving subjects such as athletes participating in sporting events.
A meniscus protective glass with a fluorine coat, produced using a process exclusive to Nikon, has been adopted for the extreme front lens element to increase durability and resistance to water and oils.
