Nikon announces longest lens in its current lineup July 12, 2012 - 10:48 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Following last month's announcement of a lens with the world's highest zoom ratio, Nikon has just announced the longest lens in its current lineup: an 800mm f/5.6 full-frame-compatible super-telephoto, The Verge reports. While the company has made longer lenses before such as the 1200-1700mm f/5.6-8.0, this 800mm is its longest ever to use autofocus. It's designed for shooting sports and wildlife and is dust- and drip-proof. The lens isn't quite out of development, but it'll be shown to professional photographers at the British Open golf championship next week, and Nikon also plans to exhibit it to the public at the Photokina show in Cologne, Germany this September. There aren't any details yet on release date or price.   Top stories Yerevan will host the 2024 edition of the World Congress On Information Technology (WCIT).
