- Key Specs
- Lens Mount Compatibility: Nikon FX
- Lens Type: Telephoto Prime
- Minimum Focal Length: 500 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Focal Length: 500 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Aperture: f/4 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)

A: The Nikon Nikkor 500mm F/4 D ED IF AF-I is an archived lens that offered a Nikon Silent Wave Motor, 9 elements in 7 groups and 9 diaghragm blades. It was significantly heavier than the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/4E FL ED VR lens. Since the Nikon Nikkor 500mm F/4 D ED IF AF-I's release there have been remarkable improvements in technology. The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/4E FL ED VR lens represents those improvements. This evolutionary lens has an Electromagnetic Diaphragm Mechanism in the barrel which provides highly accurate electronic diaphragm or aperture blade control when using auto exposure during continuous shooting. With conventional D/G type lenses, the diaphragm blades are operated by mechanical linkage levers. In addition, this lens model has a Fluorite lens element, which allows for excellent optical properties and reduces the overall lens weight to improve handling.
