The lens goes from f2.8 at the wide end to f6.5 at the long end. It has, according to Nikon, a 5-stop image stabiliser which I have to say does work to an extent although I did brace my elbows against the wooden frames of the hide.
The shutter lag isn't too bad, but really its done to treating it like an old camera and pre-focusing then holding it for the shot if the subject isn't sitting still. The start up time isn't too bad and you can preset the zoom start point, so with wildlife you have it go immediately to a mid-range telephoto and sit there on start up and then zoom in or out as required for the actual shot.

Scuse my being thick....I realise it's got a maximum aperture f6.5 at the tele end but what's the minimum aperture f8/f11 or is it just that fixed 6.5 aperture that's available?
