Nikon 400mm f/2.8G ED VR AF-S Review Round-Up

 

Nikon's huge AF-S Nikkor 400mm f/2.8G ED VR lens is so big it comes in its own special suitcase. At almost Nikon3,000 its price tag is beyond the reach of even the most serious enthusiasts. That said, this lens is beautifully constructed and elegantly...

Nikon 400mm f/2.8G ED VR AF-S Nikkor

 

an excellent fast lens for long distance subjects, such as birds or aircraft photography . This Nikon 400mm f/2.8 G is really a profesional and State of the Art lens.

None really, I have this lens coupled to a Nikon D3X and is quite a hefty combination to carry for long periods, especially up in air photography, birds or aircraft, also a heavy duty tripod is needed.This is real mans photography.

Awesome Lens!

 

I bought the Nikon 400mm 2.8D AF-S lens used this year (2010) and I could not be any happier with a lens. This lens is realatively light for a 400mm lens. It feels lighter than the Canon 400mm f/2.8 lens that I was hefting for the last couple of years....

A Cracker

 

Went mad and bought this. Had it a week. Its stunning and a Custom Bracket Gimbal Head for the tripod make it featherweight to use. Just got to work out how to travel with this Beast. A 2x Converter makes it magic for birds.

Excellent Sports Lens

 

I have been using this lens for 12 months. The image quality is superb and good contrast when used with D3. I use it with 1.4 and 1.7 teleconverters for cricket photography, with the 1.4 converter giving better image quality than the 1.7. As the...

This is one serious lens!

 

I have had this lens for a few months and I'm loving it! Sure, it's a very heavy beast - be prepared to spend a fair whack on tripod, head, bag, etc. I also recommend replacing the tripod foot with a Kirk one. It works very well in reasonable light...

very sharp, close focus distance under 3m, works well with teleconverters, very fast af, useful af limiter switch

not cheap, weight and size, requires significant expenditure on accessories
