Nikon 20125-N NIKKOR Z Camera Lens 28-400mm f/4-8 VR in Black
The All-In-One Superzoom
No matter where the action happens—right in front of you, across the playing field or somewhere between—you’ll be able to frame the shot you want. Packing all-in-one convenience and super-telephoto reach into a lightweight package, the NIKKOR Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR lets you capture more shots in more situations, from right where you are.
Features
- Always Be In The Right Spot
Covering a vast 14.2x zoom range—from 28mm wide shots to 400mm close-ups—this is an ideal superzoom lens for large-field sports, theme parks, travel or anywhere the unexpected is expected. - Super-Telephoto Details
Finally get to the heart of the action from the sidelines or bleachers with 400mm of reach (600mm equivalent on APS-C size/DX cameras). - Wide Street Shots
Zoom out to get the entire scene into your shot or capture action that’s happening right in front of you. - Candid Snapshots
Vary the look of your shots by using different zoom positions: wide to bring in background elements or tight to isolate your subjects. - Macro-Style Close-Ups
Fill your frame and create beautiful bokeh with a 7.8 inch minimum focus distance and 0.35x reproduction ratio at 28mm. - Video Versatility
Great moments don’t wait for a lens change. With the NIKKOR Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR, you can follow the action wherever it goes. - Fast, Accurate Autofocus
Powered by a high-speed stepping motor (STM), the NIKKOR Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR keeps up with fast-moving subjects like athletes, theme park rides and wildlife. - Easy To Carry
Just 725 g and 5.6 inches retracted, the NIKKOR Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR is lightweight and well-balanced, and it doesn’t draw attention like some long lenses. Carry it comfortably on your shoulder or in a sling pack or backpack. - Handheld Stability
Leave the tripod and shoot handheld on-the-go. 5.0 stops1 of optical Vibration Reduction (VR) keeps dimly lit photos sharp and videos steady. Get an extra boost up to 5.5 stops2 when used with a Z series camera that supports Synchro VR. - Dust And Drip Resistant
Carefully sealed, especially around moving parts of the lens barrel, for worry-free durability. - Customizable Control Ring
Smooth and clickless. Set it to control aperture, ISO, exposure compensation or manual focus.
Technology
- Vibration Reduction
A Nikon in-lens technology that improves image stability by automatically compensating for camera shake. Lenses that offer VR will feature the abbreviation VR on the lens barrel. - Electromagnetic Diaphragm Mechanism
An electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism in the lens barrel provides highly accurate electronic diaphragm or aperture blade control when using auto exposure during continuous shooting. - ED (Extra-Low Dispersion Glass
An optical glass developed by Nikon that is used with normal optical glass in telephoto lenses to obtain optimum correction of chromatic aberrations. - Aspherical Lens
A lens with a curved, non-spherical surface. Used to reduce aberrations and enable a more compact lens size. Aspherical lenses minimize coma and other types of lens aberrations, even when used at the widest aperture. They are particularly useful in correcting distortion in wide-angle lenses and help contribute to a lighter, more compact design by reducing the number of standard (spherical) elements necessary. Aspherical lens elements correct these distortions by continuously changing the refractive index from the center of the lens. - Stepping Motor
NIKKOR Z lenses use a stepping motor for fast, accurate, smooth, quiet autofocus with reduced wobbling. This quiet drive system makes the lenses ideal for use when shooting video.
Footnotes:
- 1 Measured in accordance with CIPA standards with VR function set to NORMAL and zoom at the maximum telephoto position.
- 2 Measured in accordance with CIPA standards with VR function set to NORMAL. Available when attached to a full frame/FX-format interchangeable lens mirrorless camera compatible with Synchro VR.
