NIKKOR Z 100-400MM F/4.5-5.6 VR S

From incredibly close distances to awe-inspiring reaches, the NIKKOR Z 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 VR S is the ultimate super-telephoto zoom for Nikon Z mirrorless cameras. Designed for sports, wildlife, and aviation photographers, this S-Line lens delivers lightning-fast, ultra-quiet autofocus. When paired with Nikon's Animal or Vehicle subject-detection AF, it provides rock-solid tracking stability—whether you are capturing a bird in flight or a speeding racecar.

• Edge-to-Edge Sharpness: Premium ED (Extra-low Dispersion) and Super ED glass elements completely neutralize chromatic aberrations, ensuring flawless clarity from the center to the extreme edges of your frame, even at maximum aperture.
• 5.5-Stop Vibration Reduction (VR): Leave the tripod at home. The powerful built-in VR system compensates for camera shake, allowing you to shoot handheld at shutter speeds up to 5.5 stops slower.
• Incredible Close-Focusing: Get up close and personal with a minimum focusing distance of just 0.75m at 100mm, and 0.98m at 400mm.
• Advanced Anti-Reflective Coatings: Shoot directly into the light with confidence. Nikon's ARNEO and Nano Crystal Coatings virtually eliminate flare, reflections, and coma, guaranteeing exceptional contrast in challenging lighting conditions.
• Perfect Balance System: Unlike traditional telephoto lenses, the center of gravity remains completely fixed as you zoom. This "Inner Balance" technology makes it incredibly easy to track subjects or use the lens seamlessly on a video gimbal.
• Ultra-Fast Zoom Operation: An incredibly short 80° zoom ring rotation allows you to sweep from 100mm to 400mm without ever having to adjust your grip. You will never miss a split-second shot.

Built for the Elements

Designed for the great outdoors, the NIKKOR Z 100-400mm features comprehensive weather sealing around the lens mount and all moving parts to keep dust and moisture out. The front element is treated with a non-stick Fluorine coat, repelling water, dirt, and smudges for easy cleaning. Remarkably, despite its massive focal range, the lens weighs just 1.35 kg, making it one of the lightest options in its class.

Ready for Cinematic Video

Videographers will appreciate the virtually eliminated focus breathing, meaning your angle of view remains perfectly consistent as you adjust focus. The smooth, silent control ring can be customized to handle aperture, exposure compensation, or ISO adjustments for natural, step-free exposure changes during a take.
