Meso Amorphous Coat and ARNEO Coat suppress ghosting and flare, preserving exceptional clarity, contrast and colour, even in harsh backlighting.
Powerful image stabilization.
Up to 6.5-stops3 of Vibration Reduction (VR) image stabilization for panning with fast action, using slower shutter speeds and maximizing available light.
The flexibility of f/2.8.
Increase shutter speed to freeze fast action, lower ISO to reduce noise, transform busy backgrounds into beautiful bokeh and shoot in whatever light is available.
Next-generation focus performance.
In fast-paced moments, subject, distance and composition change in an instant. The Nikkor Z 120-300mm f/2.8 TC VR S has the AF performance to keep up.
Silky Swift VCM (SSVCM)
Nikon’s most advanced AF motor, driving focus elements with extraordinary speed, accuracy and quietness.
60% shorter AF scan time.
Faster focus acquisition, even when your subject is initially out of focus.
Optimized for high frame rates.
New control algorithm guarantees peak performance from the fastest Nikon Z professional cameras—both today and in the future.
Fewer elements. Lighter weight.
Thanks to thinner lens elements, a reduction in the number of elements and an optimized lens barrel, the Nikkor Z 120-300mm TC VR S is approx. 1.5 lb (705 g) lighter than its F mount predecessor.
Stable, consistent balance.
The lens centre of gravity is nearer to the camera body for more controlled panning, and because the lens has internal zoom, that centre of gravity never changes.
Dual filter options.
