Nikon Nikkor Z 400mm F2.8 TC VR S Lens Officially Announced!

Nikon has just officially announced the new Nikon Nikkor Z 400mm F2.8 TC VR S Lens. It is Nikon’s first pro telephoto lens designed from scratch for mirrorless, offering several enhancements compared to its AF-S equivalent. The most obvious new feature is a built-in teleconverter, which increases the effective focal length of the new lens on-demand to 560mm at the expense of a decrease in maximum aperture to F4.  Other enhancements include a 20% weight reduction relative to the older AF-S, and 5.5EV of vibration reduction. It has a new ‘Silky Swift Voice Coil Motor’ for autofocus and a brand new coating.
