Introduction
F
Thank you for purchasing the AF-S Nikkor ED 300mm f/2.8DII IF. This is a high-
grade, internal focusing (IF) lens employing a Silent Wave Motor to drive the
focusing mechanism, thus the "S" designation. As a result, autofocusing is smooth,
silent, and almost instantaneous.

N90*, F80-Series/N80-Series*, F70-Series/N70*, F65-Series/N65-Series*,

Ch
moving sports events or images in the dark.
