Pros: Price, VR, Light

Cons: Plastic, Limited Performance on Non-Next-Generation Cameras

Opinion: Purchased only a month ago I did not do a lot of tests but I can confirm how much read on most forums, imperceptible and perfect focus. The lens is plastic but in the end even the latest plastics used by Nikon are excellent and if this causes the price to collapse as in this case compared to the older brother 10-24 well come. Even at 10mm the distortion is really minimal, easily corrected in post. To use it on my D7100 I had to update the firmware limiting its use anyway (you can not disable the VR nor autofocus),little bad, it is perhaps the only mole that limits it only to use with the latest generation machines. As in my case complete the kit of optics to take with you (in my case 10-20 , 18-105, 70-300) Recommended !!!

Pros: Image quality; cost; weight and clutter.

Cons: Brightness; some chromatic but negligible aberration.

Opinion: You can find on the net many tests of this goal, which say more or less the same things: excellent definition especially in the center of the image and intermediate focal points, acceptable and easily correctable distortion, negligible vignette, absence of flare on the one hand, constructive weakness on the other, especially with regard to plastic graft, and some chromatic aberration. Owning one, which I use frequently for architectural photos as well as interiors, especially churches, precise the following. 1) It is comfortable to carry around, given the negligible weight and modest size. 2) From an optical point of view it provides good results from every point of view, definition in the lead. Even at the shortest focal, to notice the slight drop in sharpness on the edges you have to enlarge quite a bit. 3) Quick and flawless focus. 4) The bayonet is not metal but polycarbonate, like Formula 1 cars, jets and the best racing bikes. Is he really going to be that weak? 5) The sore spot is the brightness. The maximum opening, ranging from f/4.5 to 10 mm to f/5.6 to 20 mm, proved insufficient in various circumstances, see interiors of churches. The possibility of having a much higher angle of view than the 18-55 mm of the kit, and therefore to increase the width of the shooting area by a lot, you pay with rather slow shooting times (but the VR helps) and/or with the increase of ISOs that certainly does not benefit the result. If with the lens of the kit you can get all the desired subject into the frame, it is preferable to use the latter, which, with its opening f/3,5-5.6, at 18 mm of focal has a couple of stop advantage and therefore provides visibly cleaner results. This applies, however, only in cases where there is little light. If the light is good, however, the results are qualitatively similar and the 10-20 mm has the gear more than the large angle of field. In conclusion: for those who do not want to spend too much it is a purchase to make without a doubt. Along with a telephoto lens and a macro lens, as well as of course the kit, effectively completes the minimum kit that every amateur photographer should have.

Pros: Cost, Af, VR, optical performance

Cons: Plasticous and luminosity

Opinion: Bought used as new to €200, I think it's a bargain. The lens is very light and compact especially in comparison with my 12-24 Tokina. The construction is not bomb-proof like the Tokina, but if it is not bad it is robust. Optically it behaves very well, the 10mm distortion is limited for the focal and it corrects to perfection via software, the sharpness is decidedly good and the VR, excludable, is effective. This optics shows that if Nikon produced lenses from the non-thrust brightness it could make excellent optics at human prices, because the only true limitation of this optics is the brightness. Very helpful

Pros: Af effective, light, precise. Vr works fine.

Cons: The 4 mm more of his elder brother you are missing and with think often when you pass from static subjects to live subjects....

Opinion: The lens is pretty good, maybe a dark pelino. The lightweight construction... that many criticize is due to the latest generation of polymers that, although lightweight are ABB. Durable but the portability is super! The manual focus ring is pleasant and ABB fluid although I think the strong piece is L AF, at least in my specimen, it works really well. In the photos I miss those 4 mm to feel really free to go out with only that lens.... In the videos where there is also the crop factor instead I think is perfect for most situations. The AF works in a pretty good way. Here's a bit noisy. It's with the external microphone.

Pros: Excellent value for money, versatile and light, costs 1/4 of the brother "major" 10-24, has the VR.

Cons: VR and AF-S can not be disconnected on cameras before 2015. Can not be used completely on Nikon digital cameras of the older generations.

Opinion: An excellent lens, light and all-rounder, has now become an integral part of my "minimal" Nikon equipment: Nikon D5500, 18-55 VRII, 10-20 VR, 55-200 VRII.rnTested during several trips, he returned great images sharpness and excellent overall quality. For such an objective, a certain distortion must be taken into account, which is however already correctable with the activation of the new camera firmware.

Pros: 72 mm filters. - Minimum weight - great value for money - range of focals.

Cons: VR can be turned on and off not on all models (on D500 it is ok).

Opinion: Vignette and distortion (sea horizon) irrelevant. Satisfactory sharpness. Thanks to VR made perfect shots with 1/3 sec. Structure (including the attack) in polycarbonate, so it will horrinate lovers of "metal". THE comparison with Nikon 10-24 mm. DX is inevitable. In favor of the optics under consideration: price less than half - weight halved - VR. Cons: reduced focal range - less brightness - construction. The valuation (9.6) obviously also takes into account the price.

Pros: 10mm minimum focal length

Cons: VR selector is missing

Opinion: Inevitable a 10mm DX saw the "huge 2.25x" crop in 4K Nikon APS-C shooting. I was aiming to buy a fixed 10mm or zoom just to turn the 4K wide angle. RnArrived today and tried "from the window" to diaphragm 8. Haze light but well done, better than the 18-35 Af-S homologue. Too bad the vivid inscription made in thailand. It's aesthetically ugly. But there are details. The AF is silent and imperceptible. It will be a benefit in the videos. It should look good on the field. RnThe strange feeling of having it in his hands is really small and light, polycarbonate but different to "that polycarbonate" with which some optics are made. RnTurn On / Off VR button. The barrel goes up and down with the focal change, the elongation minimum around 16mm. The front lens is very small compared to the diameter of the filters but it is not very thick, the hood also serves, albeit with the shining sunlight at sunset I did not see any particular glow. If it were, it would be a great thing%2C over 100 degrees of angle the bright spots, reflections or the sun itself are often in the frame or just outside. The feeling is that it has designed the same computer that created the 40 / 2.8 ... little miracle between quality and weight. Up to 100% do not see busy colored bands between contrasted areas, but it was with low sharpness and low contrast, because my "neutral" adjustment is this. Nothing raw today. RnPrice testing .. better than I expected, it works very well close, clean colors, excellent sharpness, contrast typical of AF-S, published a photo and its central 100x100, with the data. It is curious that "property" looks at the brightest optics of the stated, both in the data on the D500 and on the pc. RnProvided on the D610. Without crop fills the full size without vignetting at 13mm, you just have to remove the hood. In practice I bought a 15-30 zoom on the Dx format and a 13-20 on Fx. Well over 110 degrees in diagonal although the focus does not work, the opticRemains in a kind of hyperfocal with a depth of field of 2 meters to infinity, with f5.0 diaphragm more open to 13mm.
