Nikon 300mm f/4 AF Focus Window. AF Speed . AF speed is on the slow side on my F100. It is a mechanically focused lens. It will probably be slower on more primitive cameras. One full turn of the AF screw focuses the lens from infinity to 95 feet. Nikon 300mm f/4 Focus Limiter. The focus limiter is continuously variable.
The Nikon 300mm f/2.8 ED-IF was the world's first practical super-speed super telephoto. The Nikon 300mm f/2.8 ED-IF was a landmark when it was introduced in November 1977, along with Nikon's first automatic-indexing lenses (AI). These new AI lenses, which today still work perfectly on most film and digital Nikons like the newest D300, D3, F100

Verdict. The AF-S Nikkor 300mm f/4.0E PF ED VR is Nikon’s long awaited successor to the venerable and now 14-year-old AF-S 300/4.0D. The new lens is much smaller and lighter than its predecessor – in fact even compared to any other full-frame 300/4.0 lens currently on the market. And it sports Nikon’s latest version of VR image stabilization.

#1 Hello everyone! I was wondering what thoughts you have on the 300mm f/4 PF in comparison to the 300mm f/2.8 VRII. Obviously the cost is much lower for the f/4 version, but the thing that interests me the most is overall sharpness given everything else equal. Does the PF version stack up to the f/2.8?

The Nikon 70-300mm VR AF-P has a pronounced level of distortion at the short end – Imatest measured 1.34% barrel distortion at 70mm. However, barrel distortion is significantly reduced as you zoom in, showing only around 0.38% at 100mm. By 135mm, distortion is practically gone – Imatest measured 0.06% pincushion distortion, which is The fixed f/4 aperture means that the lens is a bit slow for 200mm, but perfectly fine for 400mm, where you'll likely use it most. For most subjects you'd shoot at 400mm, you'll get some depth of field isolation, though not like you get with the f/2.8 exotics (especially true on DX bodies).
Nikon 300mm f/2.8 + TC-17E II vs Nikon 200-400mm f/4.0 + TC-14E II. Now here is an interesting comparison – if we take the Nikon 300mm f/2.8 and add the TC-17E II, we end up at 510mm. If we take the 200-400mm and add the TC-14E II, we get to 560mm. This time, I tried to match the field of view, because 50mm was too big of a difference.

NIKON D850 + 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 @ 70mm, ISO 64, 1/160, f/8.0. After many days of extensive travel, I was thankful for choosing this lens for my telephoto needs and its handling was a big part of it. At just 680 grams and a height of 146mm, the Nikon 70-300mm VR AF-P fit one of my smaller camera bag compartments easily, and when mounted on a

目前使用300mm f4E PF拍小孩室內運動，體積跟重量很適合手持，機動性高. 但對焦速度有點慢，光圈又不夠大，ISO常飆6400，因此想入手300mm f2.8. 在網路看了幾天，發現N家328有好幾款，小弟以手持為主故先刷掉無VR的D鏡. G鏡有VR而且分1代跟2代，網路上看到的資料

Nikon 300mm f4 PF shot wide open at f4 against busy background. When stopped down a fraction, busy backgrounds look busier Nikon 300mm f4 PF shot at f5.6, background looks a bit rougher. Stunning lens for BIF, and wildlife action. Not having a zoom is its main drawback. Stopped down to f5.6 or f8, it is really sharp Nikon 300mm f4 PF
The Nikon 300mm f/2.8 AF-S II is a top pick for any professional use for sports, nature, landscape and portraiture. It's fast, long, ultrasharp, has fantastic bokeh, focuses just about instantly and is Nikon's lightest autofocus 300/2.8 of all time — and no 300/2.8 focuses closer. In addition to being optically superior, another reason to own
I currently have the 300 f2.8 vr1 and 300mm afs f4. Both lenses are remarkable and the f4 price point off planet. Quite often I want more reach that the 300mm lenses coupled with TC's just dont provide. I suggest the 500mm f4 afs plus the 300mm f4 afs for more casual shooting. peace, Ray
Mark. Feb 27, 2010. #2. I've owned both and if it was a choice between the two I'd go with the 300/4. If you need the flexibility of a zoom and you're on a budget I'd add a 1.4x TC to your 80-200 AFS. The Sigma 100-300/4 I had was unacceptable at f/4 from 250-300mm and I got better results with the 70-200VR + TC.
Comparing center sharpness the 2.8 lens is much sharper wide open at f2.8 than the f4 lens at f4. I would not hesitate to use the 2.8 wide open in any situation at that aperture, it is very sharp. Stopping it down a little to f4 produces an image that is as sharp as any image from the other f4 lens at any aperture.
The Nikon 120-300mm is a 50% longer focal-length version of an 80-200mm f/2.8 lens, with the same fast f/2.8 maximum aperture. Making the focal lengths "just" 50% longer with the same maximum aperture require an inordinate amount of engineering, materials, size, weight and expense. This Nikon 300mm f/4 AF-S is for the photographer who shoots on a tripod. It's the perfect 300mm lens for the sorts of people who love to shoot raw and demand the absolute highest technical image quality. It certainly will be sharper than a 70-200mm VR II and TC-14E. Personally I prefer to travel light, and shoot the 28-300mm VR instead. .
