Primary features of the Nikkor Z 180-600mm f/5.6-6.3 VR

• Super lightweight lens that is easily hand-holdable, weighing just 1955 g (4.3 lbs).
• Covers an extremely broad focal range, from a versatile 180mm to an extreme 600mm. This is equivalent to 270-900mm when DX crop is engaged.
• A short minimum focus distance of 4.3 ft (1.3m) at the wide-angle and 7.9 ft (2.4m) at the telephoto position enables close-up shots of flowers, insects and more.
• Vibration Reduction (VR) image stabilization performance equivalent to a 5.5-stop increase in shutter speed effectively reduces blurring in dimly lit surroundings and/or with handheld shooting.
• Utilization of a stepping motor (STM) ensures fast and quiet autofocusing.
• Internal zoom mechanism maintains balance, increases zooming stability and dust resistant performance.
  
• Customizable Fn buttons at the front end of the lens barrel are easy to use when shooting handheld.
  
• Designed with consideration for dust and drip resistance3, in addition to an antifouling fluorine coating on the front lens element enables easy removal of dust and dirt.
• Ideal for video recording with a click-less control ring that supports smooth operation and minimizes operational noise, as well as the effective suppression of focus breathing.
• Maintains superior resolution when using the Z TELECONVERTER TC-1.4× or Z TELECONVERTER TC-2.0× to extend the maximum focal length to as much as 840 mm or 1200 mm, respectively.
• Construction of 25 elements in 17 groups, using six ED glass elements effectively compensate for chromatic aberration, with nine aperture blades for a round, natural bokeh.
• Extremely short ring throw of only 70 degrees to adjust from the widest to longest focal length.
