AF-S NIKKOR 300mm f/2.8G ED VR II

Postby gstark on Thu Dec 10, 2009 3:47 pm

Just announced, along with an FX-compatible AF-S Teleconverter TC-20E III.

Nikon's press Release wrote:The AF-S NIKKOR 300mm f/2.8G ED VR II is a fast telephoto lens offering built-in Vibration Reduction (VR II), offering camera shake compensation equivalent to a shutter speed increase of approximately 4 stops.

The FX-compatible AF-S Teleconverter TC-20E III extends the length of the primary lens by 2x. The world’s first teleconverter to feature an aspherical lens element, the Teleconverter TC-20E III is more compact and lightweight than its predecessors.

Both products will be available in store from mid January. Please note, Nikon no longer provide RRPs for their range of pro photography gear. Pricing is available on request from Nikon Authorised Resellers.

Gary - just finished reading about it on dpreveiw, but thank you all the same.

This will be of interest to me going forward: 'FX-compatible AF-S Teleconverter TC-20E III'.
