The Nikon Nikkor Z 400mm is no exception to what the 400mm is known for; the image quality and performance are top-notch. 400mm lenses are known for their powerful lens and are famous for their focal length and are used in genres such as wildlife and landscape photography.
Depending on the image quality and your needs, you can spend any amount between under $1,000 to well over $10,000 for such a lens.
Despite being the smallest and lightest 400mm the company has ever created, the 400mm f/4.5 still comes with a range of impressive features, which includes:
- Specialized elements for lighter and more compact design (9.2 inches long, 2.7 lbs)
- One ED (extra-low dispersion) glass element, two Super ED elements, and one SR (short-wavelength refractive) element for reduced chromatic aberrations and coma
- High-dispersion design for more accurate colour rendering
- Nano Crystal Coat for reduced flares and ghosting and deeper contrast
- Multiple stepping motors for quick and quiet autofocus suitable for both photos and videos
- Full-time manual focus override
- Vibration Reduction offering up to 5.5 stops of compensation
- Removable tripod foot
- Customizable control ring
- Weather-sealed design
