Product Overview

Nikon AF-P DX Nikkor 70-300mm F4.5-6.3G is an affordable super telephoto zoom lens for Nikon F-mount. It covers the APS-C image circle. Introduced by Nikon in 2016, it has 14 elements in 10 groups.
Like most zoom lenses, the Nikon AF-P DX Nikkor 70-300mm F4.5-6.3G is externally-zooming. Unfortunately, Nikon has opted to omit weather sealing for this lens, so owners should pay extra attention when shooting in incremental weathers.
As a super telephoto zoom lens, the Nikon AF-P DX Nikkor 70-300mm F4.5-6.3G can be quite useful for wild-life and landscape photography. Built-in image stabilization is almost a must-have at this focal range, but this lens curiously omits it.
Nikon also markets a stabilized version of the same lens for $50 more.
