The AF-S NIKKOR 200mm f/2G ED VR II reinforces the lineup of fast telephoto lenses for Nikon FX-format digital-SLR cameras with the latest vibration reduction function, VR II, which reduces the effects of camera shake equivalent to a four-step increase in shutter speed, and adoption of Nano Crystal Coat, which effectively reduces ghost and flare.
