Just 11 Inches Long and 3 Pounds
The NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S fits comfortably in most backpacks and carry-on luggage, and it's light enough to be shot all day with less fatigue.
Outstanding Balance and Handling
The center of gravity is shifted toward the camera, giving you more speed and control when panning and making the lens feel even lighter.
600mm Draws You In
An essential focal length for motorsport action, birds and wildlife, 600mm closes vast distances and brings the heart of the story to your viewfinder.
Get Even Closer
Add an optional Z series teleconverter and extend your view up to 1200mm. Switch to DX Crop Mode in-camera for an additional 1.5x boost to your angle of view.
Stunning Clarity Down to the Smallest Detail
Specialized ED and SR lens elements work together to prevent light dispersion and produce the sharpest images imaginable. Fine details and intricate patterns, like those found in the feathers of birds, are rendered with lifelike accuracy.
Cut Through Backlighting and Glare
Nikon's anti-reflection coating, Nano Crystal Coat (N), greatly reduces ghosting and flare, even against bright backgrounds with direct sunlight.
Fast, Reliable Autofocus
The NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S lens is powered by the Nikon Stepping Motor (STM), an incredibly accurate, near-silent AF drive system designed to keep up with fast, erratic subjects like birds and motorsports, where you have only an instant to nail the shot.
Up to 6.0 Stops of VR
Built-in optical VR achieves an effect of shooting up to 6.0 stops faster on a camera that supports Synchro VR and 5.5 stops faster on all other Z series cameras.
Versatile Video Performance
The NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S lens operates with virtually no mechanical noise, so you can confidently use Continuous AF to track subjects. Focus breathing is heavily suppressed, maintaining your framing as your focus position changes. And the precision electromagnetic diaphragm lets you make smooth, stepless aperture adjustments while recording.
Advanced Weather Sealing
Rubber gaskets keep dust, dirt, and moisture out of moving parts, including the lens mount.
Recall Stored Focus Positions
Save a focus position with the Memory Set button. As your subject approaches the decisive moment, instantly snap back to that saved position using the Fn or Fn2 buttons.
Nonstick Protective Coating
The front element has Nikon’s nonstick Fluorine Coat, which repels oil, moisture, and smudges and easily wipes clean.
The S-Line Advantage
At the top of the NIKKOR Z lineup are special lenses developed in pursuit of a higher level of optical performance - lenses that push the boundaries of traditional design, meet a higher standard of quality, and enable new forms of image creation.
