Opteka 650-1300mm Telephoto Zoom Lens for Nikon DSLR Cameras (D5/D4/D3/Df/D850/D810/D800/D750/D610/D7500/D7200/D5600/D5500/D5300/D3500/D3400/D3300/D3200) - Wildlife & Sports Photography, Long-Distance Shooting

Opteka 650-1300 f/8 Telephoto Zoom Lens with the rise of digital imaging in the early 2000s, and inspired by stargazing aficionados around the world who wanted an easy way to capture the moon and beyond, the Opteka 650-1300mm f/8 Super Telephoto Zoom Lens incorporates lens elements from telescopes into a simple, sturdy, comet-capturing design. Designed with 6, including 1 super low dispersion, ultra high index elements in 5 groups, the lens has been designed for resolving power in high contrast situations. Opteka's High Definition anti-reflective muticoatings have been applied to each of the lens elements, suppressing flare and ghosting while maintaining color fidelity. High Definition Multicoated Optics Locking Push/Pull Focal Length Selector Inner Focusing Non-Slip Manual Focus Ring Rotating and Lockable Tripod Collar All Aluminum Alloy Body and Compatible T2 Adapter Metal Hood, Lens Case with Carrying Strap, and Caps Included Despite the durable and lightweight aluminum alloy housing, the heft and length of this lens necessitated an integrated tripod collar to minimize motion blur when photographing at slower shutter speeds. The collar also rotates, enabling you to adjust the orientation of your camera without having to change the position of your tripod or monopod. Keeping in the spirit of an all-manual shooting experience, a locking push/pull zoom mechanism has been employed to ensure your chosen focal length and aperture don't change once it has been set. The wide, non-slip rubber manual focus ring controls an inner focus mechanism (the length of the lens does not change throughout the entire focus range), which aides in the prevention of accidental focus changes, or focus drift sometimes associated with bigger lenses. While the lens also requires exposing your scene manually (either in "M" manual exposure mode or "A" aperture-priority mode), with some exposure know-how "S" Shutter Priority will also work in many daylight situations with Auto ISO enabled. Whether exploring the night's sky, photographing wildlife from a safe distance, or capturing a close-up of your kid's winning touchdown, the Opteka 650-1300mm f/8 Super Telephoto Zoom lens is a staple in any photographer's bag--especially when you wish you could get closer.

ADVANCED OPTICS Featuring an optimized design, this lens uses a series of 6 optical glass elements (one SD super-low dispersion) in 5 groups to reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations throughout the aperture range. A high definition anti-reflective coating suppresses lens flare and ghosting for increased contrast and color fidelity.

SUPER ZOOM 650-1300mm or 1300-2600mm with the 2x converter, this lens is not only a superb long range choice, but also performs well in a variety of scenes from sports and surveillance to lunar shots.

SOLID CONSTRUCTION Full metal body and rear mount allow this lens to withstand wear and tear much better than plastic lenses while commanding a rugged, solid feel when using.

MANUAL FOCUSING This lens has preset f-stops that correspond with the focal length at which you are shooting. An index for distance and diaphragm scale is inscribed on the lens barrel to coordinate focal length and aperture.

COMPATIBILITY Can be used on all Nikon APS-C and full frame cameras including D7500, D7200, D7100, D5600, D5500, D5300, D5200, D5100, D5000, D3400, D3300, D3200, D3100. D3000, Df, D5, D4, D3, D850, D810, D800, D750, D700, D610, D500, D90, D60 and D40.
