• If this lens is used with cameras not compatible with vibration reduction, set the vibration
reduction ON/OFF ring switch to OFF. With the Pronea 600i/6i camera, in particular, battery
power may become quickly depleted if this switch is left ON.
1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the AF-S VR Nikkor 300mm f/2.8G IF-ED lens. This is a high-
performance lens featuring special Vibration Reduction (VR) and high-speed Internal Focusing (IF)
mechanisms. It also employs a Silent (S) Wave Motor to drive the focusing mechanism. Focus
preset is also provided.

Major features
• With this lens, you can take pictures at shutter speeds approx. 3 stops slower than you ordinarily
could without using a VR lens, expanding the range of usable shutter speed options and making
telephoto shooting much easier without a tripod.
• Two vibration reduction modes are available: (1) the NORMAL mode for reducing camera shake,
and (2) the ACTIVE mode for reducing camera shake when taking pictures from a moving vehicle.
• Panning is also possible, as the lens automatically distinguishes panning from camera shake and
vibration reduction works effectively (in the NORMAL mode).
• Vibration reduction is possible when taking pictures using a tripod, because the lens
automatically determines when it is mounted on a tripod.
• Autofocus (A) or manual (M) mode can easily be selected with the focus mode switch.
• Focus lock is provided to lock the focus; Focus preset then returns the focus to its preset position
instantly.
• AF start (AF-ON) is available to start autofocus on the lens.
• Functions provided: (1) autofocusing with manual override providing an instant change from
autofocusing to manual focusing, (2) focusing limit switch to limit AF operation within a certain
shooting distance. (Refer to “2. Focusing.”)
• More accurate exposure control is possible when this is mounted on a Nikon camera having 3D
Matrix Metering capability, because subject distance information is transferred from the lens to
the camera body.
• The use of three ED (extra-low dispersion) lens elements ensures sharp pictures virtually free of
color fringing. Also, by utilizing a 9-blade diaphragm that produces a nearly circular aperture,
out-of-focus images in front of or behind the subject are rendered as pleasing blurs.
• The Nano Crystal Coat deposited on some of the lens elements ensures that fine, clear images
can be reproduced under any shooting conditions, from the sunny outdoors to spotlighted
interior scenes.
• Meniscus glass, unlike existing flat glass, is used for the lens protective glass
• Closest focusing distances of 2.3m (7.5 ft.) (AF) and 2.2m (7.2 ft.) (MF) are provided.
