Nikon’s super-light 500mm f/5.6 PF lens is a game-changer. It fills a very special niche and offers something that no other lens on the market offers, at least not at this level. On the surface, what this lens brings to the table is a high quality, fast focusing, light-weight su...
You know, I feel sort of bad for the new Nikon 500 PF lens. With all the hype and hoopla surrounding the new Z6 and Z7 mirrorless cameras, this lens sort of got lost in the shuffle. In fact, I think Nikon should have given it an announcement day all its own. The truth is, it...
Specifically designed for beginner and enthusiast wildlife/sports photographers, the new Nikkor 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR became the first hand-holdable Nikon lens to reach 500mm at a relatively low price point of $1,399. This offering, coupled with the upcoming Nikon D500 DSLR, makes a kille...

The Nikkor 300mm f/4E PF ED VR is physically just like the Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G VR, earning it “world’s lightest 300mm full-frame lens” title. Nikon was able to achieve this by using a Phase Fresnel (PF) lens element, which can effectively reduce the need to use complex...
I am using Z7 & 500mm PF lens. I would like to know which AF-Area mode is more suited for these types of scenes. These birds are small. Should that be a factor in AF-area selection? My expectation from AF-system is, no hunting and and AF should not bounce from here and there....
