Bold Beefy the Nikon 80 400mm Lens Holds a Steady Secret

The
Nikon 80 400mm lens
is a versatile, compact and lightweight zoom ideal for wildlife and outdoor photography, and includes Nikon’s VR image stabilization technology. This lens from Nikon is from the family of long telephoto zooms. With a zoom ratio of 5x, the lens is not pushing the optical laws too far in its capabilities and with its 3 ED elements and the help of Vibration Reduction technology (VR) it performs very well indeed.

AF Nikkor lenses work with Nikon SLRs for optimal performance, even the very latest. The nikon 80 400 is no exception. It is compact, lightweight and therefore an extremely useful lens for the photographer who shoots outdoors.

This nikon 80 400mm lens is quite remarkable. This is a 5:1 tele zoom, and one would think that given the "jack of all trades" nature of such a beast there would be severe optical compromises. Not so. As with just about all lenses, there is a slight loss of sharpness at full aperture, but once the lens is stopped down even one stop, sharpness at all focal lengths is quite satisfactory.

Nikon 80 400mm Lens 8 x Times Faster...

The nikon 80 400mm vr system minimizes image blur caused by camera shake and offers the equivalent of shooting at a shutter speed three stops (eight times) faster. It allows handheld shooting at dusk, at night, and even in poorly lit interiors. The lens' VR system also detects automatically when the photographer pans--no special mode is required. VR operation works with the Nikon F6, F5, F100, F80, F75, F65, D2-series, D1-series, D100, D70-series, and D50 cameras.

Trying to take highly magnified photos at shutter speeds that are simply too slow has always presented problems. With the 80 400mm lens Nikon has gone a long way to tackling the issue through its innovative "vibration reduction" technology. These optics are designed to compensate, at least partially, for the camera shake that is inevitable when a lens is hand-held.

Nnikon 80 400mm VR Eliminates Camera Shake...

The nikon 80 400mm f 4.5 5.6 d interchangeable lens automatically detects camera shake during panning with two modes of VR: Image plane and Viewfinder. VR for the viewfinder is cancelable to conserve battery power. Three ED glass elements ensure superior optical performance and high contrast even at maximum apertures.

With the nikon 80 400mm you can now shoot the equivalent of a shutter speed three stops (eight times) faster. This allows handheld shooting at dusk, at night, and even in poorly lit interiors. The lens' VR system automatically detects when the photographer pans--no special mode is required.

Nikon d300 SLR camera help!

Ok... I'm going to buy the Nikon D300 DX 12.3MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR DX Nikkor Zoom Lens
I'm also going to get a case, a tripod and a flash because they're important to have.

Now I need help regarding filters, polarizers and certain lenses.
I definitely want to get a good UV filter and colored filters which I can use when taking pictures of the sky or beach.

I'd like to get a micro, macro, telephoto, and panoramic lens. But would I need these 4 lenses considering that the camera comes with a 18-200mm lens?? Is telephoto the same as panoramic?? Isn't panoramic the kind where the picture is really elongated?

and if it turns out that I can buy these 4 lenses.....what should I type in the search bar if I buy them from amazon.com?

Thank you!!!

Don't just get any tripod ... save your pennies and get a good sturdy one (over $200 will get one you can depend on)

The Nikon SD600 is probably the best moderatly priced dedicated flash for your camera.

Hoya, Tiffen and B&W filters are good. All lenses need a UV to protect their front elements ... A polarizing filter is only necessary for standard zoom lenses. Since colour correction is handled onboard your camera, you don't need colour correction filters.

Telephoto is the opposite of what you are calling "panoramic".

The 18-200 mm lens is a medium wide angle to telephoto lens.
Shooting amazing landscapes, you may want to eventually get the 12-24 mm lens.

Macro lenses are a specialty lens so if you want to shoot macro, you will need to buy either the 60 mm or 105 mm VR Nikon lenses. They are lenses that will shoot subjects with an subject to image ratio of from between 1:1 to 1:2.

Micro photography is done using a microscope.
