The NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S super telephoto lens is made to thrive in nature, the perfect companion to capturing dynamic moments with ease.
All the reach. Half the weight.
Approximately 57% lighter than the NIKKOR Z 600mm f/4 TC VR S.
Built for handheld.
Say goodbye to photoshoot fatigue with the ultra-lightweight NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S, and experience world-class mobility and freedom while capturing birds & planes from a distance. With the lightest body1 in its class at just 1390g, and a compact design measuring just 278mm, the centre of gravity of the lens is now positioned closer to the body. Providing users more control while panning. The focal length of the NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S is also 100 mm longer than the AF-S NIKKOR 500mm F/5.6E PF ED VR and 115 g lighter than the AF-S NIKKOR 500mm F/5.6E PF ED VR with FTZ.
Experience better balance with the centre of gravity positioned optimally closer to the body, allowing you more control even focusing on fast-moving subjects while panning.
The Phase Fresnel Factor.
Optimal for handheld, the lightweight and compact design is made possible thanks to a Phase Fresnel lens element. It not only reduces the size and weight of lens elements to shorter and light, but also effectively delivers a high compensation capability for chromatic aberrations.
See the stunning details.
See the beauty and detail of even the finest feathers with high-resolution images and outstanding optical performance. With the PF lens element, two ED glasses and one SR lens element, the new NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S suppresses axial chromatic aberration, creating a superior resolution comparable to the AF-S NIKKOR 500mm F/5.6E PF ED VR. Combining the use of Nano Crystal Coat, the optimised positioning of the PF lens element effectively reduce ghosting, allowing users to enjoy consistently sharp rendering power while keeping images in high resolution, even when shooting subjects at a 1200-mm range with a teleconverter.
Capture without shake.
Even at super-telephoto level with up to 5.5-stops2 VR, get the best out of your images with incredible VR performance and counter camera shake. With two modes to choose from, NORMAL & SPORT, you can also tailor your images to your specific needs.
NORMAL mode provides users with the results in optimal conditions, with VR performance equal to a 5.5-stops2 increase in shutter speed.
SPORT mode, however, is best suited for capturing unpredictable and fast-moving subjects, even during continuous shooting, because it provides a stable viewfinder image. The lightweight body perfectly complements SPORT mode when it comes to panning shots and tracking moving objects. You can also achieve a more powerful Synchro VR at up to 6.0-stops3.
Be one with nature.
Nature loves the sound of silence, which is exactly why the Stepping Motor (STM) was designed to provide users with excellent quietness and response speed. Making it perfect for shooting wild birds or other wildlife, especially when considering the reduced operational sounds during focusing and movie recording. With its fast and precise AF, it’s also ideal for shooting fast-moving subjects and videos, wildlife or motorsports, when you only have the briefest moment to react.
Everything about the NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S is designed with operability in mind. Whether it’s the excellent dust & drip resistance4, the ideal positioning of operational controls, or the fluorine coat for anti-fouling, every element is considered with ease of use in mind. To achieve superior dust & drip resistance, a sealing is placed on various moveable parts of the lens barrel, while a rubber gasket on the lens mount prevents anything from entering the lens. The Fluorine coat effectively repels dust or dirt, making it easier to remove if it adheres to the lens surface. Enabling you to always focus your attention on your subject, even in sudden changes of weather.
The positioning of operational controls is consistent with other super-telephoto prime lenses, with non-slip rubber applied to common holding areas to offer a more stable and natural grip. With four L-Fn2 buttons and one L-Fn button that allow users to assign functions to suit their own preferences, operability and customisation are enhanced without relying on visual confirmation. While the Memory recall function5 saves frequently used focus positions to the lens to allow for quick recall.
Designed for videos.
With an array of enhanced video features, the NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S empowers you to take video mode to a new level.
Quiet operation
The lens drive and other operational sounds are minimised to prevent them from being recorded, even when shooting in quiet situations. A “click-less” control ring has been adopted to prevent unnecessary operational sounds during video recording.
Achieve natural videos
Effective focus-breathing compensation6 allows for reduced shifting of the angle of view when adjusting focus for filming natural and smooth videos.
Stable exposure with smooth aperture changes
Delivers natural brightness changes, allowing users to create smooth videos with a smooth, stable aperture control.
