Nikon has recently applied for a patent on new lenses, including a super telephoto options like a 200-700mm f/6.3-8 – as well as for a 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 telephoto and a 24-240mm f/4-6.5 superzoom. This news was shared by asobinet.com.
The patent application was published on April 11, showing that Nikon Z-series users might soon have the chance to shoot with a zoom that goes beyond 600mm in focal length. Nikon does offer more telephoto reach with its Nikon 600mm f4 TC VR S and Z 800mm f6.3 VR S primes – but these are big, expensive lenses primarily designed for professional sports photographers. A 200-700mm f/6.3-8 would undoubtedly have more popular appeal amongs wildlife, aviation and sports shooters.
