Professional-grade super-telephoto lens with advanced optical technology, designed for high-performance wildlife, sports, and action photography.

The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 600mm f/4E FL ED VR is a professional-grade super-telephoto lens designed for high-performance photography, particularly in wildlife, sports, and action scenarios.

Compatible with full-frame Nikon DSLR cameras and can be used on DX models where it provides a 900mm equivalent focal length

Compatibility

Bright f/4 maximum aperture benefits working in difficult lighting conditions and also offers a great deal of control over depth of field

Aperture

Incorporates two fluorite and four extra-low dispersion elements to reduce chromatic aberrations and color fringing for improved clarity

Optics

Features Nano Crystal and Super Integrated Coatings to suppress lens flare and ghosting for greater contrast and color accuracy

Lens Coating

The Nikon 600mm f/4E FL ED VR Lens is a **prime** super-telephoto designed exclusively for the **Nikon F mount**, covering **full-frame** sensors. Its fixed **600mm** focal length and **f/4** maximum aperture make it a capable tool for photographers working at long distances who need consistent exposure performance. The lens includes **optical image stabilization**, which is a meaningful asset when shooting at this focal length from handheld or lightly supported positions. Both **autofocus and manual focus** modes are supported, offering adaptability across different shooting scenarios. The **40.5mm filter thread** accommodates filter use within the lens's optical path. Weighing in at **3,810 grams**, this lens demands serious support equipment and physical preparation, but it delivers the fixed-focal-length consistency that a dedicated 600mm prime provides. Compatible with Nikon's DSLR ecosystem via the F mount, it is suited for photographers who work regularly at extreme telephoto distances.

Fixed 600mm focal length with a maximum aperture of f/4 delivers strong light gathering at extreme subject distances.

600mm f/4 Prime

Fluorite lens elements reduce chromatic aberration and contribute to a lighter overall build compared to earlier 600mm f/4 designs.

Fluorite (FL) Elements

Extra-low dispersion glass minimizes color fringing and maintains edge-to-edge sharpness across the frame.

ED Glass Elements

Nikon's Vibration Reduction system provides up to 4 stops of compensation, helping produce sharp images during handheld or supported shooting at this focal length.

4-Stop VR Stabilization

Full-frame coverage on the Nikon F mount ensures compatibility with a wide range of Nikon DSLR bodies, both FX and DX.

Nikon F Mount, Full-Frame

The E-type electromagnetic aperture control delivers consistent exposure across continuous shooting sequences.

Electromagnetic Diaphragm

40.5mm rear drop-in filter thread makes practical use of ND and polarizing filters without requiring oversized front filters.

Drop-In Filter System

Built-in Silent Wave Motor enables fast, quiet autofocus acquisition suited to wildlife and sports environments where noise matters.

Silent Wave Motor AF

At 3,810g, the lens reflects the optical requirements of a 600mm f/4 prime and typically requires a monopod or tripod with a gimbal head for extended use.
