Currently the longest lens in Nikon’s lineup, the 800mm f/5.6E FL ED AF-S VR features Nikon’s Silent Wave Motor, which provides fast, accurate autofocus performance and instant manual focus override for switching between AF and MF. The in-lens vibration reduction provides up to 4 stops of correction and helps to minimize camera shake. The 800mm f/5.6 has an electromagnetic aperture mechanism that provides greater exposure control stability when shooting at faster continuous frame rates.

Optically, the 800mm f/5.6 has an advanced lens construction that uses fluorite elements in the first and second positions to minimize weight and chromatic aberrations. Two extra-low dispersion (ED) elements are used to further limit optical aberrations while increasing image sharpness, clarity, and color fidelity, while Nikon’s Nano Crystal Coat prevents surface and internal reflections, as well as ghosting.

This rental includes the Nikon TC800-1.25E ED AF-S teleconverter, which is designed specifically for use with the 800mm. This teleconverter increases the lens’s focal length to 1,000mm f/7.1 on FX crop-frame cameras and 1,500mm on DX crop-frame cameras. The lens’s ED element ensures high image quality and its electromagnetic aperture mechanism retains its full functionality while you’re using the teleconverter.
