Nikon's ultimate portrait telephoto — the AF-S 200mm f/2G ED VR II for professional sports and portraits.
The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 200mm f/2G ED VR II is one of the most coveted lenses in the Nikon system — a 200mm f/2 super-telephoto with VR stabilisation. At f/2, it provides the shallowest DOF available at 200mm with autofocus. VR II provides approximately 4 stops of correction. Designed for professional sports, press, and portrait photographers.
Optical performance is extraordinary. Sharpness is outstanding from f/2 — one of the sharpest Nikon lenses ever made. The 200mm at f/2 produces ethereal bokeh with extraordinary subject isolation. ED glass provides exceptional colour correction. VR II stabilisation enables handheld use at 200mm f/2. AF-S provides blazing fast AF for tracking action.
Nikon F mount. Rear drop-in filter holder. Weight is approximately 2,930 grams — very heavy. Build quality is outstanding professional grade with full weather sealing and fluorine coatings. Compatible with Nikon teleconverters — 280mm f/2.8 with 1.4x, 400mm f/4 with 2x. Hard case and tripod collar included.
Extremely rare and expensive even used — one of Nikon's most prestigious lenses. Check VR, AF, and all elements. The 200mm f/2 creates images impossible from any other lens — the combination of telephoto compression and f/2 speed produces three-dimensional rendering that nothing else matches. A true professional investment lens.
