Recent Posts


No Nikon 70 300 VR Lens Review would be complete without discussing many advanced Nikon design elements that this ideal telephoto lens offers, making it perfect for shooting things like wildlife, sports and portraits.
Just some of the features that this lens incorporates are Extra Low Dispersion (ED) glass and Enhanced Vibration Reduction (VR II), an improvement on the admired and highly efficient first generation vibration reduction technique.

For those photographers out there using a Nikon DX format digital SLR, the focal length of this lens is equivalent to 105-450mm.

Perhaps the most crucial feature of this lens besides its marvelous image quality is the Enhanced VR II vibration reduction. Telephoto lenses can be subject to motion blur (specially in low light) due to the extended focal length and narrow aperture that can be result.

VR II allows to take drastically sharper handheld images at slower shutter speeds, negating the use of a bulky tripod or other stabilizing element. There's also an additional aspect of vibration reduction technology named as VR active mode. That's magnificent for shooting on the move, such as from a moving car. If you like panning then the Nikon 70 300mm VR review has you covered too. VR Normal Mode compensates for camera shake but includes automatic panning and tripod detection.

While the first generation of vibration reduction only offered an extra 3 stops of shooting, the second generation can offer up to four stops and the importance of this ability should not be underestimated.

Nikon's Extra Low Dispersion Glass elements do a magnificent job of offering high resolution, high contrast images which greatly reduce chromatic aberration and any other forms of lens distortion to minimal levels.

The Nikon 70-300mm VR also incorporates Silent Wave Motor Technology (SWM). Basically this technology allows the lens to possess quick and accurate autofocus but with extremely silent operation. A lot of photographers will love this, especially the fact that the autofocus is silent unlike some of the older, slower, more noisy autofocus systems of the past.
