Product information
Pros and cons
According to our camera lens expert
- Thanks to the relatively large aperture of f/2.8, you can use the lens in dark locations or at sunset.
- The lens has a fixed aperture, so the light intensity remains the same when zooming in.
- You can use the lens to capture video images, thanks to the fast and silent focusing system.
- Due to the weight of 1360g, the use of a tripod is recommended for extended use.
Description
The Nikon Nikkor Z 70-200 mm f/2.8 VR S is suitable for Nikon mirrorless cameras with a full frame sensor. Thanks to the zoom range of the lens, you can photograph subjects from a great distance. You can use the lens for sports, nature, and reportage photography, for example. The f/2.8 aperture ensures you can use the lens in low-light situations. The lens has a fixed aperture, so the light intensity remains the same when you zoom in. This means you don't have to adjust your settings immediately.

Nikon's best Z-mount lens
- Speed focus
- Photosensitivity
- Well balanced on camera
- No Arca-Swiss lens foot
I can confirm the many positive reviews on the internet, this is the best lens Nikon has produced so far in the Z series. The focus is very fast, and the VR is nothing short of brilliant. The lens is very well balanced. Zooming in is done at the front of the lens, and that takes some getting used to. One downside is that the lens foot does not have an arca-swiss.
