It has powerful Vibration Reduction (VR) image stabilization to keep your videos steady and your photos sharp. It focuses quickly and silently and surpresses focus breathing—ideal for recording videos and high-speed action. And when not in use, it retracts into itself for a compact profile and added protection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNIKKOR Image Quality\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCapture vibrant street scenes, landscapes, portraits, selfies, low light, action, how-to videos and more.

Like high-end cinema lenses, it's designed to suppress focus breathing—a common occurrence with smartphones, that makes videos look amateurish. Plus, its AF motor, focusing ring and control ring are virtually silent, so the camera's built-in mic won't pick up noise from the lens during recording.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrecision Autofocus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f\/3.5-6.3 VR uses a blazing fast, nearly silent stepping motor for autofocusing, and it performs brilliantly with Z series' Eye AF to keep focus right where you want it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Contrast\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass lens element reduces colour defects and glare for sharper, clearer images with outstanding contrast.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCustomized Control\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAssign your favourite function to the control ring—aperture control (great for iris transitions during video recording), ISO adjustments, exposure compensation or manual focus.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNIKKOR Z: The front line of an imaging revolution.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesigned and optimized to take full advantage of the Z system's larger mount, Z lenses like the NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f\/3.5-6.3 VR gather substantially more light, providing even illumination and improved sharpness from the center of the frame to the far edges. Autofocusing is fast and quiet. Video recording is clean and smooth with highly minimized focus breathing and reduced wobbling. Intuitive on-lens controls can be customized to your individual shooting style and so much more. Z lenses are designed with a sense of consistency that combines reliability and beauty with next-dimension optical performance for complete freedom in image creation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStepping Motor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNIKKOR Z lenses use a stepping motor for fast, accurate, smooth, quiet autofocus with reduced wobbling.

Used to reduce aberrations and enable a more compact lens size. Aspherical lenses minimize coma and other types of lens aberrations, even when used at the widest aperture. They are particularly useful in correcting distortion in wide-angle lenses and help contribute to a lighter, more compact design by reducing the number of standard (spherical) elements necessary. Aspherical lens elements correct these distortions by continuously changing the refractive index from the centre of the lens.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuper Integrated Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNikon Super Integrated Coating is Nikon's term for its multilayer coating of the optical elements in NIKKOR lenses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVibration Reduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Nikon in-lens technology that improves image stability by automatically compensating for camera shake.
