FASTER, LIGHTER, MORE PRECISE: THE NIKKOR Z 70-200MM F/2.8 VR S II
Engineered for the Professional in Pursuit of Perfection.
The legendary 70-200mm f/2.8 has been reborn. Nikon has pushed the boundaries of optical engineering to create an S-Line lens that is 26% lighter and 3.5x faster in autofocus performance. Whether you are tracking a sprinting athlete or capturing a quiet moment at a wedding, the NIKKOR Z 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S II delivers unrivaled clarity and speed.
Why Professionals are Switching to the S II:
The 998g Revolution: No more fatigue during 10-hour wedding days. This is the lightest lens in its class, designed for effortless handheld and gimbal operation.
Silky Swift VCM (SSVCM): A new AF drive system that provides near-silent, lightning-fast focus—essential for high-end videography and critical action shots.
Built-in Arca-Swiss Support: A first for NIKKOR. Mount directly to your favorite tripod heads without needing extra plates.
Next-Level Anti-Reflective Coatings: Features Nikon’s proprietary Meso Amorphous Coat and ARNEO Coat to virtually eliminate ghosting and flare, even in harsh backlighting
