The AF-P system uses Nikon”s pulse-stepping motor autofocus system, a new faster and quiet system which is ideal for photographers and videographers.  The lens also incorporates Nikon”s Vibration Reduction (VR) system to compensate for up to 4 stops of shutter speed to help eliminate camera shake.  The new 70-300mm lens also removes the standard switches from the lens barrel to eliminate accidental changes and allows users to quickly adjust settings from the camera menu.
