What does VR mean for Nikon lenses?

What does VR with Nikon lenses mean?

The VR of Nikon lenses is the abbreviation of "Vibration Reduction". This technology is designed to reduce instability caused by tiny jitters during handheld photography. By equipping a vibration compensation system inside the lens, VR technology can reduce hand tremors while ensuring clear and stable images.

What are the benefits of VR with Nikon lenses for shooting?

The VR technology of Nikon lenses makes it easier to shoot with the camera, making it easy to create clear images whether on a rocking boat or a night shot with a long exposure time. Best demonstrated when holding a telephoto lens in hand, this technology provides sharper images after passing through complex mirrors at slow shutter speeds.

What are the precautions and applicable scenarios for VR with Nikon lenses?

Although VR technology works very well in low-light environments, when shooting in sunlight, the technology may have a counterproductive effect on the contrast and color expression of the image. In addition, holding the lens for a long time can lead to fatigue and affect stability when locking the focus, so you should pay attention to using a tripod or other stabilizer in time to help shooting. This technology can be better used in some scenes that require the use of telephoto lenses, handheld shooting, or low light.
