Nikon NIKKOR Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S lens

The lightest 600 mm prime in its class

This super-telephoto prime lens weighs approx. 1470 g (with tripod collar) and has its centre of gravity closer to the camera body for optimal balance. 

High-performance S-line optics

SR and ED glass control aberrations and colour fringing. Nano Crystal Coat counters ghosting and flare for superb clarity. 

AF that stays on track

From aerial tricks to birds in flight, or a fleeting moment of eye contact. This super-telephoto lens will track and focus subjects in near silence.

Up to 6-stop VR image stabilisation

In-lens optical Vibration Reduction (VR) provides stabilisation equivalent to shooting at 5.5 stops slower, or 6.0 stops with a Z camera that supports Synchro VR.

High-performance sealing

Rubber gaskets keep dust, dirt, and moisture away from all moving parts, including the lens mount. Nikon’s fluorine coating makes the front element easy to clean.

Intuitive fingertip control

Functions can be assigned to the L-Fn buttons, and the silent control ring. The memory-set button allows instant recall of focus positions. 

Sharp, even with a teleconverter

Every advantage of this lens’ powerful AF and VR is available while using Z teleconverters. Reach can be increased by 2x (up to 1200mm) or 1.4x (up to 840mm).
