The Nikon AF-S Nikkor lens offers enhanced vibration reduction for blur-free images, allowing shutter speeds up to 4 stops slower. Its SPORT mode excels in capturing fast-moving subjects, while NORMAL mode provides all-around stability. The lens hood blocks stray light, minimizing flare and ghosting. With a focus distance range of infinity to 1.4m, it's ideal for various shooting scenarios. The lens also features a focus lock function for precise control and a tripod collar for stable mounting.
