This high-end super telephoto lens is ideal for journalistic photography, photographing sporting events in athletic stadiums, winter sports and distant subjects in water sports. The lens includes a special custom-tuned 1.25x teleconverter that extends the focal length to 1,000mm while maintaining excellent optical performance and an effective f/7 aperture.
Durable magnesium alloy construction and two fluorite optical elements significantly reduce the weight of the lens and provide better balance, making it easier to handle. The fluorite optical elements offer higher transmission frequencies and lower light scattering than conventional ED glass.
The electromagnetic aperture control system provides very precise control of the circular blades, ensuring stable automatic exposure during continuous shooting. Vibration Reduction (VR) minimizes the effects of camera shake, allowing shutter speeds up to 4 EV longer than normal.
