Take your field photography further with the Nikon NIKKOR Z 400mm f/4.5 VR S lens. This high-performance, full-frame super-telephoto prime lens offers an unmatched combination of reach and portability. Weighing just 1,160g, it stands as the lightest 400mm prime lens in its class, letting you shoot handheld for longer without fatigue.
As part of Nikon's elite S-Line, the Nikon NIKKOR Z 400mm f/4.5 VR S features advanced Super ED and SR glass elements. These technologies virtually eliminate chromatic aberrations and color fringing, ensuring edge-to-edge sharpness and high contrast. The fast f/4.5 maximum aperture provides excellent low-light performance and beautiful, natural bokeh that isolates your subject from the background.
Equipped with an ultra-quiet Stepping Motor (STM), this lens delivers fast, accurate tracking for unpredictable subjects like birds in flight or athletes on the move. Built-in optical Vibration Reduction (VR) provides a 5.5-stop advantage, which increases to 6.0 stops of Synchro VR when paired with compatible camera bodies like the Z9. Fully weather-sealed with a protective front fluorine coating, this professional lens ensures reliable performance in harsh outdoor environments.
