The incredibly portable build puts the NIKKOR Z 400mm f/4.5 VR S firmly in a class of its own. Weighing just 1245 g (approx.) and with a total length of just 234.5 mm, this is a super-telephoto lens you can keep attached to your camera.
The centre of gravity on this super-telephoto lens is closer to the camera body—creating the optimal balance for fluid panning and smooth tracking. You can quickly accelerate during handheld panning and stop your movement instantly.
The NIKKOR Z 400mm f/4.5 VR S is compatible with the Z series lightweight 1.4x and 2x teleconverters. Increase your reach to 560 mm or 800 mm with the same outstanding resolution, and very little extra weight or length.
From tires spraying dirt to an eagle in repose—the outstanding resolving power of this super-telephoto lens lets you capture every shot in stunning detail. Bokeh, colour, clarity, and contrast are all superb, and you can shoot without worrying about glare or backlighting. AF is fast, accurate, and exceptionally quiet. This is an S-line lens that will match your creative vision perfectly.
Speedy subjects. Beautiful bokeh. The f/4.5 maximum aperture lets you work creatively with shutter speeds and depth of field. Freeze fast action and isolate subjects from busy backgrounds—images stay sharp even when shooting wide open.
With Nikon’s powerful in-lens optical VR giving you a 5.5-stop advantage, shooting handheld has never been this steady. If used with the Z 9, Synchro VR combines the in-lens and in-camera VR systems for up to 6.0 stops of compensation.
The optical construction boasts Nikon’s Nano Crystal Coat, which counters ghosting and flare caused by light entering the lens diagonally. Super ED, ED, and SR glass control chromatic aberration from the centre to the edge.
Stills or video, the perfectly balanced NIKKOR Z 400mm f4.5 VR S is designed to bring you a comfortable, fluid shooting experience. The front grip encourages a stable shooting posture. An intuitive control layout and tactile details on buttons, rings, and switches help you quickly make adjustments without taking your eye off the viewfinder.

Another superb Z series lens from Nikon. I've not used it much yet but I'm more than impressed with the quality of images to date. Its light enough to use hand held too if you're careful. I traded in some equipment I no longer used and the whole process was very quick and straightforward.
I'm mainly a wildlife photographer and I wanted a telephoto lens to replace my F mount 300mm f4 PF. This looked like a good option but I loved my 300mm PF as it was super sharp and really compact, so it had a lot to live up to. It certainly didn't disappoint! I have to say this Nikkor 400mm f4.5 is better. Sharpness is superb, autofocus is fast and silent. I love the compactness and light weight too, I can comfortably hand hold it for long periods of time.
I haven't put it on a tripod yet because it's so easy to use hand held. Beautiful image quality, lovely soft backgrounds wide open with plenty of contrast and sharpness on your subject. It's a lot of money but excellent value for a 400mm prime lens. For brilliant image quality, performance, handling and value I have to give this lens five stars.
