This compact 600 mm lens was developed for freehand photography and offers impressive image quality. From wildlife to birds, motorsport, aeroplanes and more, photographers can capture the speed, power and grace of distant subjects with amazing detail. Weighing approximately 1470g (with tripod adapter), the NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S is the lightest 600mm fixed focal length lens in its class thanks to the use of a highly specialised phase Fresnel lens element. As the centre of gravity of the lens is closer to the camera body, it is exceptionally well balanced and enables very comfortable freehand shots: Photographers can move fluidly despite the long focal length of 600 mm, even when panning or shooting overhead. Whether photos or films: Nikon's high-performance super-telephoto lens delivers impressive images with the sharpness and pleasing bokeh that only a fixed focal length S-series lens can offer. Even when shooting through dusty air or directly into the sunset, the images are razor-sharp and clear at any aperture. The powerful image stabiliser in the lens allows blur-free and sharp images with a correction of up to 6.0 stops of light even in low-light situations, e.g. at dusk or in a dense forest. Those who photograph wildlife and birds will appreciate the quiet, precise autofocus, which tracks and focuses on subjects almost silently. Thanks to its reliable sealing, this lightweight 600 mm lens is ideally equipped for harsh environments and uncertain weather conditions. For even more reach, the NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S can be combined with a Z-series teleconverter without compromising resolution.

For once in my life, I was at the top of the queue and have had this lens since opening day. Results so far are excellent, entirely competitive with my 500mm f/4 F-mount plus 1.4X TC. The 600's image quality is at least as good; its setup is much lighter (6.5 pounds with Z9 attached, vs 12 for the 500/TC/D850) and more compact; it locks and follows focus faster than the 500+TC), and it even costs less (only an arm vs. an arm and a leg :-). In practice, the 1/3 stop less speed (f/6.3 vs. f/5.6) and shorter (600 vs. 700) focal length are not very important (to me, anyway). I tend to run the 500 at f/6.3 or f/7.1 to get more depth of field for smaller birds in close. The 600's shorter focal length does cut the reach a bit, but the wider field of view makes tracking ... MoreFor once in my life, I was at the top of the queue and have had this lens since opening day.

Run (do not walk :-) to your local camera store to order one, or set those fingers flying on your keyboard to order one on-line. You won't regret it. And don't forget, Christmas is coming, so you can indulge with less guilt than usual :-)
