Nikon NIKKOR Z 100-400mm VR S | Premium versatile telephoto zoom lens with image stabilization for Z series mirrorless cameras (compatible with teleconverters) | Nikon USA Model

What a great lens!! Fast and clear results. Beautiful resolution and a perfect mate to my Z8.

The lens was used on two separate trips to polar regions and performed extremely well in cold and wet conditions. The lens focuses fast, and image quality is excellent.

I am not a professional photographer and will not get into the weeds about lens elements, coatings and the subtle variations of clarity from one corner to the next. It is a Nikon lens and I expect it to be great. From my photos, it is. This lens picks up where my 25 to 120 mm leaves off. My only negative is that because of its design it is not a fast lens (f/ 4.5 to 5.6) which means at the longer focal lengths a tripod is required. But I knew that going in. I am very happy with the lens.

Great lens, heavy but has great sharpness

Nikon has hit this one out of the park. This lens is very sharp.

Don't walk, RUN to buy this lens! It is the best affordable lens I've ever had, better than the Nikon 200-500 that I was using for five years with the D500. Had to switch to mirrorless for the overall weight factor. This lens works perfectly on my Z50II camera, picks up details I've never seen before.

Overall, a really flexible lens. 100-400mm is a convenient focal length range for landscape and wildlife, and it's also good for close-up work due to small minimum focus distance. It works well with the 1.4x teleconverter to reach 560mm f/8. It complements the 24-120mm f/4 lens well and takes the same 77mm filters.

Sharp images

Sharp!!!

One of the best lens on the market, a bit heavy but still the lightest on the market. Definitely needs a tripod, but pictures taken without one are also good quality. Whether you take Moon shots or wildlife or anything else, this lens is a must have. Paired with a TC 2.0 teleconverter and getting a 200-800mm lens by only losing 2 stops (so going to f/9). Has two useful rings, one for focus and one for the aperture change, display on top (OLED) and two Fn buttons. Really amazed at the details and clarity you get with this lens. Took a hand held shot at 400mm @ 1/60 without issues.

I was shocked at the quality of images this lens produced. I was a bit dubious at first as it is not a fast lens however wanted the versatility of a zoom to complement my fixed focal telephoto lens. I was very pleased. It is lightweight and easily handholdable.

Great lens, nice and sharp. Recommended.

A top of the line lens, that takes great pictures!
