Great for: wildlife sport portrait landscape

Professional super-telephoto prime lens for Nikon F-mount cameras, ideal for sports and wildlife.

The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 400mm f/2.8G ED VR is Nikon's professional super-telephoto prime, designed for sports, wildlife, and nature photography at the highest level. The G designation indicates no aperture ring; ED = Extra-low Dispersion glass elements; VR = Vibration Reduction. It is one of the most optically and mechanically demanding lenses Nikon produces.

400mm focal length, f/2.8 maximum aperture, five ED glass elements, VR (Vibration Reduction, approximately 3-stop effective), AF-S (Silent Wave Motor) ultrasonic AF, Nikon F mount, fluorine-coated front element, magnesium alloy construction, approximately 4.6kg.

The 400mm f/2.8G ED VR delivers reference-class optical performance for professional sports and wildlife photography, with edge-to-edge sharpness and excellent isolation from fast aperture. AF tracking on moving subjects is excellent with the internal SWM drive. The fluorine coating repels water, dust, and fingerprints on the front element.

Test AF accuracy and tracking speed on moving subjects if possible. Check VR function — both Normal and Active modes. Inspect the front element fluorine coating for any damage. Confirm Nikon F mount contacts are clean. Check the drop-in filter system (if included). At this price tier, provenance and service history are important.
