Nikon Z 600mm f/4 TC VR S Lens with Built-in 1.4x Teleconverter

Nikon Z 600mm f/4 TC VR S Lens with Built-in 1.4x Teleconverter Summary

The Nikon Nikkor Z 600mm f/4 TC VR S is perfectly balanced, with the centre of gravity positioned in the middle of the tripod foot for more stable operation and less strain on the posture whether shooting mounted or handheld. Tough environments are all in a day’s work thanks to full weather sealing, and this super-telephoto Nikon mirrorless lens also boasts an impressively lightweight build. Its dimensions are even compact enough to fit in a kit bag that will suit most cabin-baggage requirements.

Key features

• Built-in 1.4x teleconverter: a flick of a switch on the right side of the lens is all it takes to engage the teleconverter and transform this 600 mm f/4 prime lens into an 840 mm f/5.6 lens.
• Unwavering AF: autofocus is powered by Nikon’s Silky Swift voice coil motor and an optical ABS encoder, which detects and communicates lens position with absolute accuracy.
• Exquisite detail: sharpness is outstanding across the frame, even when shooting wide open, and bokeh is beautifully smooth and rounded. Powerful in-lens Vibration Reduction: gives a 5.0-stop advantage, and a 5.5-stop advantage when using a Nikon mirrorless camera that supports Synchro VR.
• Meso Amorphous Coat: combats ghosting and flare by eliminating incidental light coming from both diagonal and vertical directions.
• Tough: sealing around all moving parts and the lens mount keeps dust and moisture at bay. Nikon’s fluorine coating protects the front element.
• Balanced: the lens’ centre of gravity is towards the middle of the tripod foot for more stable operation and less strain on the posture, perfect when combined with bodies such as the Z9.
• Customisable: functions can be assigned to the Fn ring, as well as to the Fn buttons, focus ring, and silent control ring. Save focus distances to the memory-set button.
• Cabin-friendly: compact and lightweight enough to fit into a kit bag that will meet the carry-on requirements of most airlines.
• Compatibility: supports use of the Nikon Z 1.4x Teleconverter and Nikon Z 2.0x Teleconverter.

Photographers who need more reach can instantly engage the built-in teleconverter without adjusting their shooting posture or taking their eyes off the main event.
