Nikon Canada Announces DX 16-80mm F2.8-4, FX 500mm F/4 and FX 600mm F/4

Nikon Canada today announced three news lenses, expanding Nikon’s family of first-class lenses for DX and FX-format cameras.

The AF-S DX NIKKOR 16-80mm f/2.8-4E ED VR is a versatile wide-angle lens for enthusiast photographers:

• The first Nikon DX lens with an electromagnetic diaphragm for consistent exposure during high-speed shooting
• The first Nikon DX lens with Nikon’s legendary Nano-Crystal Coat
• Equivalent to the popular 24-120mm FX format focal range

The AF-S NIKKOR 500mm F/4E FL ED VR makes professional super telephoto performance lighter than ever before:

• Weighs 6.8 lbs./3090 grams (vs. 8.5 lbs./3880g for its predecessor)
• A great choice for nature and sports photographers who need tack-sharp images of birds in flight or fast-moving action
• Includes new fluorite lens elements to reduce chromatic aberration

The AF-S NIKKOR 600mm F/4E FL ED VR provides the ultimate in fast-aperture and focal distance for challenging subjects:

• Weighs 8.3 lbs./3810g (vs. 11.5 lbs./5060g for its predecessor)
• The constant aperture of f/4 lets photographers fill the frame and create dramatic separation between subject and background
• Also includes new fluorite lens elements
