The super-telephoto lens has been reimagined in nikon’s smallest, lightest full-frame 500mm prime lens ever. Powered by Nikon proprietary Phase fresnel (pf) technology, this 9.2 inch, 3.2 pound powerhouse frees you to shoot wildlife, sports and action with unmatched mobility. Pack light, move fast and catch the shots others might miss. When photographing birds, wildlife, sports or action, mobility can make the difference between nailing the shot or missing it altogether.

I still love that lens for it’s superb optical rendition wide open given it’s price point, and the way it complements my f/4G VR trio of lenses from 16-200mm, but this new 500mm f/5.6E PF ED VR is a whole different beast entirely.First off, the most astonishing thing about this lens when you first take it out of the box will be its size and weight…
