F-mount DX telephoto zoom 70-300mm

This Nikon F-mount zoom covers 70-300mm on DX-format bodies, giving a 105-450mm equivalent field of view. The variable aperture runs from f/4.5 at the wide end to f/6.3 at the long end, stopping down to f/32. It uses a pulse stepping motor for quiet autofocus and includes one extra-low dispersion element with super integrated coating. A rounded 7-blade diaphragm helps produce smooth background blur.

Suited for DX shooters extending reach.

The lens targets photographers moving beyond an 18-55mm kit zoom who want affordable telephoto reach for sports, wildlife or portrait work on compatible DX cameras. Videographers benefit from the near-silent stepping motor during HD recording. Buyers using older Nikon DSLRs such as the D4, D3, D2, D1, D800, D700, D600, D300, D200, D100, D7000, D5100, D90, D70, D3200, D3100, D3000, D60, D50 or D40 series cannot use this lens at all, while the Df, D5, D810, D750, D7200 and D7100 offer only limited functions.

Pulse stepping motor AF decides video usability

The built-in pulse stepping motor drives autofocus quietly and smoothly, which is the single specification that determines whether the lens serves well for HD video capture. If silent continuous focus during filming is a priority, this motor design meets that need; if the camera body lacks support for AF-P lenses, autofocus will not function.

Questions about this item

What does the 105-450mm equivalent range mean for everyday shooting?

On a DX camera the lens covers a moderate telephoto to long telephoto view, so you can frame distant subjects such as wildlife or sports from 70mm through 300mm.

How does the f/4.5-6.3 maximum aperture affect low-light use?

The variable aperture narrows from f/4.5 at 70mm to f/6.3 at 300mm, so shutter speeds drop as you zoom in; you will need higher ISO or a tripod in dim conditions.

What camera mount and body clearance does the lens require?

It uses the Nikon F mount and is built for DX format bodies; the barrel extends during zooming, so ensure your camera bag has enough depth for the fully extended length.
