All while taking full advantage of the monumental Nikon Z mount and adhering to the strictest image quality and build standards.

Obsession for details and uncompromising zoom

The highly-desirable 70-200mm telephoto zoom has come to the Z series. Sports, concerts, weddings, wildlife, portraiture and so much more—all with the incredible low light performance of an F2.8 made only better by the optically superior Z mount. Optical advancements including parfocal support for passionate cinematographers and videographers. Class-leading close focus ability. Superior aberration suppression. And the most comprehensive optical VR image stabilization in the history of Nikkor interchangeable lenses. The Nikkor Z 70-200mm F2.8 VR S sets an impressive new standard for fast telephoto zoom lenses optimized for the next generation of Nikon’s advanced mirrorless cameras.

Class-leading close focusing

For greater framing versatility, the Nikkor Z 70-200mm F2.8 VR S is capable of extremely short minimum focusing distances, allowing the lens’ speed and performance enhancements to be realized in remarkably tight shooting scenarios. At 70mm, focus can be achieved as close as 0.5m from the subject, virtually unheard of in a telephoto zoom of this focal range.

The finest of details

The Nikkor Z 70-200mm F2.8 VR S captures astoundingly sharp images with captivating resolution and glorious clarity all the way to the edges of the frame. It’s superior VR performance ensures exceptional sharpness when shooting handheld. And to combat color fringing while close focusing, an all-new multi-focusing system delivers fast, accurate autofocusing while drastically reducing aberrations

Parfocal performance

For cinematographers who prefer to manually focus, the Nikkor Z 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S beautifully maintains sharp focus on a subject while zooming in or out. Parfocal lenses also virtually eliminate focus breathing for smooth focus transitions that don’t change the apparent angle of view.

Smooth, fast and quiet autofocus

Powered by an ultra-quiet stepping motor (STM), autofocusing is fast, silent and incredibly accurate. Where camera noise can be distracting or problematic—street photography, wedding ceremonies, wildlife or on video productions—STM is a silent partner.

Superior color and sharpness

Ultimate aberration correction—virtually zero flare, ghosting, coma or chromatic, spherical and axial aberrations, even at the far edges of the frame. A new SR (Short-wavelength Refractive) glass element further combats chromatic aberrations caused by challenging short-wavelength light

Brilliant in low light

The exceptional combination of a bright f/2.8 aperture, high resolution Nikkor optics and the brilliant Z mount makes the Nikkor Z 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S a tireless low light performer capable of clean, sharp images and faster shutter speeds in dark scenes and interiors.

Frame-filling brightness

One of the many advantages of the larger Z mount is its ability to retain even illumination, especially at the corners of the frame, for bright, even exposures with minimal vignetting.

Highly-cinematic

The Nikkor Z 70-200mm F2.8 VR S is a remarkable lens for video applications. Parfocal support for maintaining manual focus while zooming. Smooth, silent AF with virtually no focus breathing. Standard 77mm filter support. Superior optical image stabilization combines with the camera’s* in-body image stabilization and Electronic VR. All of this added to the versatility of the highly useful 70-200mm focal range.

Customizable control ring, Customizable shortcut buttons, Lens information panel

The Nikkor Z 70-200mm F2.8 VR S features a control ring that can be used for quiet aperture control (great for iris transitions during video recording or situations where complete silence is critical), exposure compensation or ISO adjustments. It also has two convenient customizable Fn buttons right on the lens barrel. Set them to streamline your shooting experience—preview depth of field, lock focus, magnify to confirm focus and more. The control ring can be used for quiet aperture control (great for iris transitions during video recording or situations where complete silence is critical), exposure compensation or ISO adjustments.

The lens information panel is a dimmable, built-in EL (Electroluminescent) display panel that allows quick, convenient confirmation of aperture, focal length, focus distance and depth-of-field, even in dark situations

Specialty Coatings

When subjects are backlit, incidental light can streak across the frame causing unwanted ghosting, reflections and flare. To counteract these anomalies and ensure crisp, clean images, the Nikkor Z 70-200mm F2.8 VR S employs two of Nikon’s most advanced lens coatings: Nano Crystal Coat for eliminating incidental light from a diagonal direction and ARNEO Coat for eliminating incidental light from a vertical direction. Additionally, Nikon’s proprietary Fluorine Coat, repels dust, dirt and moisture, provides enhanced antifouling performance, ensuring easy removal of all types of grime from the lens surface—a life-saver when shooting in harsh conditions.
