Birds, wildlife, aircraft, motor sports, and winter sports: this tough yet remarkably lightweight S-line lens brings the dynamism of distant subjects close in thrilling clarity. Users can follow even erratically moving subjects with a fluidity previously unheard of at 800mm \u2014 and open up their creative possibilities with steady handheld shooting.<\/p>\n<p>From hunting eagles to banking planes, the phenomenal resolving power of this S-line lens brings out even the tiniest details of difficult-to-capture subjects. Image quality is pin-sharp, whether shooting stills or video, and AF performance is exceptionally fast, smooth, and reliable. In-lens optical VR keeps shots steady, and Synchro VR allows up to 5.5 stops of compensation when this lens is paired with the Z 9. In addition, this super-telephoto lens supports use of Z teleconverters, which can extend the reach to 1120mm or 1600mm.<\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_163751&quot;  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1020px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"163751\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/A-side-shot-of-the-new-Nikkor-Z-800mm-f6.3-VR-S-telephoto-lens-.jpg\" alt=\"A side shot of the new Nikkor Z 800mm f\/6.3 VR S telephoto lens\" width=\"1000\" height=\"389\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">A side shot of the new Nikkor Z 800mm f\/6.3 VR S telephoto lens<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<p>Thanks to its balanced, lightweight design, made possible by the Z mount and a Phase Fresnel (PF) lens element, users can confidently take the NIKKOR Z 800m f\/6.3 VR S off the tripod and shoot handheld. This mirrorless lens is approximately 2.3 kg lighter and 16% shorter than its F-mount counterpart, and its centre of gravity is closer to the camera body \u2014 making it easier to pan and stop smoothly. Photographers can customise controls, and advanced weather sealing protects both lens and camera.<\/p>\n<p>Rob Harmon, senior commercial lead, Nikon Northern Europe, says: &#8216;<em>This new 800 mm lens truly opens up exciting new possibilities for photographers. Gone are the days when the shot you can capture with a long lens is dictated by the flexibility of your tripod or monopod. The dramatically reduced size and weight of this new super-telephoto lens offers the kind of portability and handling that was previously impossible: you get more chances to nail difficult shots, or capture perspectives that were previously unattainable.&#8217;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><u><strong>Summary of key features: NIKKOR<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Z<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>800mm<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>f\/6.3<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>VR<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>S<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Professional super-telephoto lens<\/strong>: 800mm focal length.
