Nikon AF-S Nikkor 300mm f/2.8G ED VRII Review
Handling and features
Nikon's latest flagship 300mm f/2.8 lens isn't a lens for everyone. The price of around £4000 means only the rich, or those who need the very best performance will be able to justify the cost. As you might expect from a super-telephoto lens intended for daily professional use, it sports weather sealing and Nikon's Vibration Reduction II technology, which promises sharp hand-held images at shutter speeds up to four stops slower than would be possible without. Nikon's Nano-Crystal coatings have also been applied to lens surfaces to help suppress flare and ghosting.
