Weighing just under 1kg, it is the lightest Nikon 70-200mm f\/2.8 ever built — a significant achievement made possible through an extensive optical redesign that removed three elements, introduced more aspherical elements, thinned several glass groups, and adopted a convex-first front configuration that reduces the number of moving groups during focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe optical formula is exceptional in its complexity and ambition. The revised design incorporates one Extra-low Dispersion (ED) element, one Super ED element, two aspherical elements, one aspherical ED element, one fluorite element, and one Short-wavelength Refractive (SR) element — a combination that aggressively controls chromatic aberration, colour fringing, and distortion across the entire zoom range. Paired with an 11-bladed rounded diaphragm and an improved aspherical element manufacturing process, the result is a lens that renders backgrounds with a smoother, more circular bokeh than its predecessor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnti-reflection performance reaches a new standard with the introduction of Nikon's Meso Amorphous Coat, which outperforms the Nano Crystal Coat for diagonal incident light and matches the ARNEO Coat for vertical incident light. With both coatings applied, ghosting, reflections, and flare are suppressed from virtually every angle, delivering higher contrast and more accurate colour reproduction in the toughest lighting conditions. Autofocus is driven by the Silky Swift Voice Coil Motor (VCM) system — a magnet-based mechanism that replaces gears entirely, producing faster, more accurate, smoother, and near-silent focus movement that is equally at home in fast-action stills and professional video production.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVibration Reduction compensates for up to 6 stops of camera shake, internal zoom and focus maintain a consistent barrel length in use, and comprehensive weather sealing with a fluorine-coated front element protect the lens in rain, dust, and demanding outdoor conditions. From portraiture and wedding photography to wildlife, sports, and broadcast video, the NIKKOR Z 70-200mm f\/2.8 VR S II is the workhorse telephoto zoom that does everything at the highest level.
