The Nikon NIKKOR Z 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S is a Z-mount telephoto zoom with a constant f/2.8 aperture, optical stabilisation and a 77 mm filter thread. It takes fourth place in this guide at £1,999.00, with 4.6 out of 5 from 175 ratings. Where several lenses in the group have a Focus Type that reads Manual Focus, this listing says Auto Focus, and it matches the group's 77 mm filter size rather than the 52 mm given on the most expensive lens here.

The weak part of this fiche is the spec table arguing with itself. A lens whose Lens Design is 'Zoom' and whose range is 70-200 mm also carries a 'Fixed Focal Length' of 200 Millimetres. The Minimum Aperture is given as '22 Millimetres' — f/22 is a ratio, not a distance — while the Maximum Aperture is written as '2.8 f'. The zoom ratio of 2.86:1 does hold up against 200 divided by 70. Every figure on this page is taken from the Amazon listing — price, ratings, specification fields and buyer comments — and none of it comes from testing by us.
