The current Nikon AF-S 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G IF-ED VR lens
In addition to the ultra wide angle lens, Nikon is going to announce also a new Nikkor AF-P 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 VR full frame lens.
Please note that Nikon already announced a new Nikon AF-P Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3G ED (VR) DX lens for APS-C cameras last year. The new lens I mentioned in this post will be full frame and will replace the current AF-S 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G IF-ED VR version.
According to Nikon “AF-P lenses that achieve fast and quiet AF with adoption of a stepping motor for AF drive operation” which makes them a good choice for video recording.
So far, those are two of the rumored five Nikkor lenses that are rumored to be announced this year.
As I reported yesterday, Nikon officially announced several commemorative models and goods celebrating Nikon’s 100th Anniversary. Pricing and additional information will be available in June. Check out also the new dedicated website. Additional information:
