Nikon 10.5mm f2.8G DX Fisheye Lens

Optical Characteristics

With a 35mm equivalent focal length range of 16mm, this lens offers a Wide Zoom Lens perspective.

Recommended Applications

* Recommendations are based only on the features necessary to perform the application successfully and do not take into account the relative image quality of different lenses

Landscapes

Wide expanses and panoramas can be captured on the wide end of this focal length. For this application aperture settings will usually vary from f5.6 and smaller and cameras will usually be tripod mounted.

Interiors

Wide angle lenses are a must to capture the look of a room when working in confined spaces. This lens’s fast aperture allows you to capture as much natural light as possible and the camera will usually be tripod mounted to use slower shutter speeds.

Technologies

ED glass

Nikon developed ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass to enable the production of lenses that offer superior sharpness and color correction by minimizing chromatic aberration. 

Nikon Super Integrated Coating

Nikons Super Integrated coating multilayer lens coating helps reduce ghost and flare to a negligible level.

Nikon Super Integrated Coating achieves a number of objectives, including minimized reflection in the wider wavelength range and superior color balance and reproduction.

Aspherical lens elements

Aspherical lenses virtually eliminate the problem of coma and other types of lens aberration — even when used at the widest aperture. They are particularly useful in correcting the distortion in wide-angle lenses. In addition, use of aspherical lenses contributes to a lighter and smaller lens design.

Close-Range Correction system

The Close-Range Correction (CRC) system is one of Nikon’s most important focusing innovations, for it provides superior picture quality at close focusing distances and increases the focusing range.

With CRC, the lens elements are configured in a “floating element” design wherein each lens group moves independently to achieve focusing. This ensures superior lens performance even when shooting at close distances.

Distance information

D-type and G-type NIKKOR lenses relay subject-to-camera distance information to AF Nikon camera bodies. This then makes possible advances like 3D Matrix Metering and 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash.

G-type NIKKOR

The G-type NIKKOR has no aperture ring; aperture should be selected from camera body.

DX NIKKOR

Compact and lightweight DX NIKKOR lenses featuring a smaller image circle are specially designed and optimized for Nikon D2-series, D1-series, D100 and D70s/D70 digital SLR cameras. These are ideal options for landscape photographers and others who need to shoot expansive scenes with Nikon DX-Format digital SLRs.
