Nikon’s Nikkor Z 600mm F6.3 VR S is a super telephoto that uses a fresnel element to cut down on length and weight. Nikon loaned us a pre-production model to familiarize ourselves with the new phase fresnel lens. We were limited to only out-of-camera JPEG for review, so we don’t have a full picture just yet, but the early results look promising. Take a look and let us know what you think of this new offering from Nikon.

Our DPREVIEW Tribute:
After nearly 25 years of operation, DPReview closed on 10 April 2023. This difficult decision was part of the annual operating plan review that parent company, Amazon, shared earlier this year.
Over the course of 25 years, DP Review built up a reputation as being one of the most informative places to go for information about that new camera or lens you’re after. DP Review began as an independent reviews site based in the UK in 1998, the brainchild of Philip and Joanna Askey, but it was eventually purchased by Amazon in 2007 and relocated over to Seattle in the USA in 2010.
Cheers DPReview – thanks for the great work and content that guided photographers, videographers and techno junkies the world over!
