The Nikon Nikkor Z 28-400mm f/4-5.6 VR lens offers a versatile focal length range, making it perfect for both wide-angle and telephoto photography. Its advanced vibration reduction ensures sharp images, while the lightweight design and silent autofocus enhance your shooting experience.
The all-in-one superzoom.
No matter where the action happensโright in front of you, across the playing field or somewhere betweenโyouโll be able to frame the shot you want. Packing all-in-one convenience and super-telephoto reach into a lightweight package, the NIKKOR Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR lets you capture more shots in more situations, from right where you are.
Always be in the right spot.
Covering a vast 14.2x zoom rangeโfrom 28mm wide shots to 400mm close-upsโthis is an ideal superzoom lens for large-field sports, theme parks, travel or anywhere the unexpected is expected.
Super-telephoto details.
Finally get to the heart of the action from the sidelines or bleachers with 400mm of reach (600mm equivalent on APS-C size/DX cameras).
Wide street shots.
Zoom out to get the entire scene into your shot or capture action thatโs happening right in front of you.
Candid snapshots.
Vary the look of your shots by using different zoom positions: wide to bring in background elements or tight to isolate your subjects.
Macro-style close-ups.
Fill your frame and create beautiful bokeh with a 7.8 inch minimum focus distance and 0.35x reproduction ratio at 28mm.
Video versatility.
Great moments donโt wait for a lens change. With the NIKKOR Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR, you can follow the action wherever it goes.
Fast, accurate autofocus.
Powered by a high-speed stepping motor (STM), the NIKKOR Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR keeps up with fast-moving subjects like athletes, theme park rides and wildlife.
Easy to carry.
Just 725 g and 5.6 inches retracted, the NIKKOR Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR is lightweight and well-balanced, and it doesnโt draw attention like some long lenses. Carry it comfortably on your shoulder or in a sling pack or backpack.
Handheld stability.
Leave the tripod and shoot handheld on-the-go. 5.0 stops of optical Vibration Reduction (VR) keeps dimly lit photos sharp and videos steady. Get an extra boost up to 5.5 stops
Dust and drip-resistant.
Carefully sealed, especially around moving parts of the lens barrel, for worry-free durability. Thorough dust and drip-resistance is not guaranteed in all situations or under all conditions.
Customizable control ring.
Smooth and click less. Set it to control aperture, ISO, exposure compensation or manual focus. Linear focus available for video recording.
Zoom Lock Switch
Prevents the lens from accidentally extending in transport; added peace of mind.
Vibration Reduction
A Nikon in-lens technology that improves image stability by automatically compensating for camera shake. Lenses that offer VR will feature the abbreviation VR on the lens barrel.
Electromagnetic Diaphragm Mechanism
An electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism in the lens barrel provides highly accurate electronic diaphragm or aperture blade control when using auto exposure during continuous shooting.
ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) Glass
An optical glass developed by Nikon that is used with normal optical glass in telephoto lenses to obtain optimum correction of chromatic aberrations.
Aspherical Lens
A lens with a curved, non-spherical surface. Used to reduce aberrations and enable a more compact lens size. Aspherical lenses minimize coma and other types of lens aberrations, even when used at the widest aperture. They are particularly useful in correcting distortion in wide-angle lenses and help contribute to a lighter, more compact design by reducing the number of standard (spherical) elements necessary. Aspherical lens elements correct these distortions by continuously changing the refractive index from the center of the lens.
Stepping Motor
NIKKOR Z lenses use a stepping motor for fast, accurate, smooth, quiet autofocus with reduced wobbling. This quiet drive system makes the lenses ideal for use when shooting video.
