FX-format compatible, super-telephoto zoom lens featuring VR SPORT mode that enables the capture of super-telephoto shots easily even with handheld shooting. VR performance immediately after the power is turned on in NORMAL mode has been improved, providing a more stable viewfinder image and enhanced blur-reduction effect on the resulting images. Even during high-speed continuous shooting, stable AE control is achieved with the adoption of an electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism.
FX-format compatible, 2.5x super-telephoto 200-500 mm zoom lens with a fixed maximum aperture of f/5.6
ED glass elements are employed to achieve high optical performance with minimal chromatic aberration
Vibration Reduction (VR) system with an effect equivalent to a shutter speed 4.5 stops faster in NORMAL mode
SPORT mode, especially effective when shooting sports, for example, in which subjects are radically moving, is adopted as a VR mode option
