Nikon AF-S 55-200mm f/4.0-5.6 G VR DX IF-ED Telephoto Lens

Compact telephoto zoom lens with Vibration Reduction

Outstanding, yet affordable performance

The AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor 55-200mm f/4-5.6G IF-ED is a compact 3.6x zoom lens featuring state-of-the-art optical technologies, including Vibration Reduction (VR), Nikon’s ED glass element and Silent Wave Motor (SWM). It has been specifically designed to complement DX format sensors found in Nikon’s line-up of advanced D-SLR cameras, including the new D40X digital SLR camera.

Offering powerful zoom performance of 55-200mm (equivalent picture angle of 82.5-300mm in 35mm format), this lens is suitable for every type of photography, from candid portraits to sports, nature and wildlife photography.

Nikon’s VR system helps eliminate image blur caused by camera shake, particularly when shooting in low-light situations. This lets you use shutter speeds up to three times slower than you would normally use, resulting in sharper, well-exposed images. Nikon’s VR system also stabilizes the image seen in the viewfinder, easing picture composition.

The lightweight AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor 55-200mm f/4-5.6G IF-ED also incorporates proven Nikon features and technologies such as SWM, which offers quiet and smooth auto-focusing, and one ED glass element, which provides higher resolution and high-contrast images.

Note: This lens is designed exclusively for use with Nikon DX format digital SLR cameras and is not compatible with 35mm [135] or IX240 format film cameras. Specifications, design, product name, standard accessories, and release schedule may differ by country or area.

Key Features

  • A compact telephoto zoom lens featuring VR and SWM at an affordable price
  • VR offers the equivalent of shutter speeds 3 stops faster, for more flexible hand-held shooting
  • A wide 55-200mm (picture angle equivalent to 82.5-300mm lens in the 35mm format) 3.6x zoom range for high quality images
  • An ED glass element helps minimize chromatic aberration, providing superior contrast and higher resolution
  • Compact SWM for quiet autofocusing
  • Optical performance highly complements Nikon digital SLR cameras

A little about Macro Lenses

Macro lenses are important to photographers who tend to shoot close-ups. That’s because, although they’re quite similar to standard lenses in most ways, macro lenses are engineered to focus at much shorter distances. Most often used in nature photography, these lenses magnify small objects like insects and flowers and captures immense detail and clarity. Other applications of a macro lens are in scientific photography and product photography. You’ll find that macro lenses can also act as a standard lens.

These lenses tend to have a higher f-stop number (which allows in less light) and therefore are not always ideal in low lighting situations. For subjects that are sensitive to movement (insects and animals, for example), macro lenses with longer focal lengths can be used.
