Vibration Reduction Lens —
Sharp Pictures, Indoors and Out
Even a small amount of
camera shake could blur
your pictures, turning a great image
into an instant disappointment.
Shooting in low light or with telephoto
lenses that amplify small camera
movements are just two examples.
With Nikon’s VR (Vibration Reduction)
lenses, however, you can shoot in
these situations and remain confident
that your pictures will be sharper than
ever before.
Every VR NIKKOR lens has its own
specialized Vibration Reduction
system built right inside. Unlike
similar systems that are built into the
camera body, each of NIKKOR’s lens-
integrated systems uses specialized
technologies that are optimized to
match the optical design and common
subject matter for a specific lens
model. Not only does this minimize
blurriness
related to
camera-
shake more
accurately and
effectively,
VR built into
the lens
has another
significant benefit: a visibly steadier
image through the viewfinder –
something that in-camera systems
cannot offer. A stable viewfinder
image makes composing easier and
substantially more comfortable.

Defining strength — NIKKOR lenses
A camera’s lens is your eye on
the world, and the quality of that
lens will directly affect the quality
of your pictures. That’s why
every NIKKOR lens is
developed and designed
by Nikon’s passionate,
uncompromising
engineers. They start
by choosing the most
appropriate materials
and then create the
glass in their own
glassworks – unusual
among camera makers.
Some of the world’s most
sophisticated technologies help
Nikon’s experienced lens designers
make the world’s finest quality
lenses, so that by the time any
NIKKOR lens reaches your camera,
it has been individually tested,
inspected and fine-tuned to perform
at its best. With this truth in mind, it’s
no wonder so many professional
photographers around the world have
relied on NIKKOR lenses for decades.
This same level of lens performance
can be yours, too. NIKKOR lenses
mean amazing pictures and incredible
tools to help you to capture your
special moments
perfectly.
Two new examples of
NIKKOR quality are the
18-55mm VR and the
55-200mm VR lenses.
Compact and affordable,
both deliver tack-sharp
pictures with accurate
colors and dramatic
contrast. Quick, quiet
and precise automatic
focusing assures sharp pictures for
every scene you capture. And with
Nikon’s VR (Vibration Reduction)
technology located in the lens, you
can count on more consistently sharp
handheld pictures.
