Product Description
-------------------
The Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 55-200 mm f/4-5.6 G ED VR II Lens is a
collapsible telephoto zoom lens that boasts a serious size
advantage. Compact, light and easy-to-handle, it's an ideal
partner for smaller DX-format cameras.
With a flexible focal range up to 200 mm, this zoom lens is used
for close-ups of distant subjects, travel s, sporting
adventures and amateur wildlife photography. The streamlined body
means you can shoot telephoto without carrying heavy gear and the
retractable lens mechanism lets you collapse the lens for
additional portability. The optical construction delivers
dynamic, high-contrast images, and autofocus is fast, precise and
super-quiet. Crucially for a telephoto lens, Nikon's Vibration
Reduction system enables blur-free images, even when shooting at
the far end of the telephoto range.
The NIKKOR 55-200 mm is a way to discover the creative advantages
of shooting telephoto. Get right in the middle of the action at
sporting events, capture wildlife from afar, isolate subjects
against impressive cityscapes or close in on the drama when
filming a movie. The compact build makes this an especially
comfortable lens to handle and the high-quality optical
construction produces beautifully sharp photos and videos even
when shooting handheld. For extra reach without the extra weight,
it doesn't get much lighter than this.
Designed to enable more stable handheld shooting, Nikon's
Vibration Reduction system lets you shoot at up to four stops
slower, without the image-degrading blur that can be caused by
camera shake. A way to counter the effects of camera shake is
essential when shooting telephoto and Nikon's VR technology is
renowned for its ability to deliver clear, blur-free images at
any focal length. It helps immensely when you shoot in low light,
or when you're zooming in to capture distant subjects.
Engineered to draw high performance from your DX-format camera,
the AF-S NIKKOR 55-200 mm lens delivers quality results every
time. The optical design features 13 elements in nine groups,
including an extra-low dispersion glass element that helps
minimise chromatic aberration for high-contrast images. Nikon's
compact Silent Wave Motor (SWM) technology enables quiet, fast
and accurate autofocus performance, which is a particular
advantage when shooting wildlife or movies.
Weighing just 300 g, the NIKKOR 55-200 mm is a mere 83 mm long
when retracted, which is seriously small for a telephoto zoom
lens. For those seeking a lightweight general telephoto lens,
this NIKKOR also makes an ideal companion lens for the NIKKOR
18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6 G VR II zoom lens. Combine a small D-SLR
camera with these two lenses and you have a powerful double zoom
kit that won't weigh down your bag.
