This ultra-wide-angle zoom lens with a focal length of 10-20mm makes it easy to enjoy professional-grade ultra-wide-angle photography. Its lightweight, compact body makes it easy to carry with a compact and lightweight Nikon DX-format digital SLR camera. Its portability makes it ideal for travel. Its focal length covers the ultra-wide-angle range of 10-20mm (equivalent to 15-30mm in 35mm format). Its unique perspective allows you to easily enjoy the unique expression of professional-grade ultra-wide-angle photography, such as dynamic depictions that emphasize spatial depth and the expansiveness of backgrounds. Compact and lightweight, yet delivering high image quality. The latest optical design, incorporating three aspherical lenses, delivers high image quality despite its compact and lightweight design. It effectively suppresses distortion and aberrations even at the edges of the image, while delivering high resolution compatible with the latest DX-format digital SLR cameras. Even distant subjects in landscape photography are captured with sharp detail. Comfortable operation and ease of use: The lens features a VR mechanism with 3.5 stops of image stabilization (CIPA standard compliant). It effectively reduces the effects of camera shake, even when shooting night scenes or dimly lit indoors. The AF drive employs an STM (stepping motor) for fast and quiet operation, ensuring comfortable autofocus even in situations where lens drive noise is a concern, such as video recording. The smooth-rotating focus ring provides a smooth operation when using manual focus. Furthermore, the maximum magnification of 0.17x and minimum focusing distance of 0.22m allow you to get up close and personal with your subject for bold, close-up shots. Enjoy the unique close-up potential of ultra-wide-angle lenses, capturing a wide background while taking advantage of perspective to emphasize your subject. *Compliant with CIPA standards: When used with a digital SLR camera equipped with an image sensor equivalent to APS-C size. Measured at the maximum telephoto position. Lens settings controlled via the camera menu: Lens settings that were previously controlled with a switch on the lens barrel are now controlled via the camera menu. AF/MF switching can be done in the camera's "Focus Mode," and VR (Vibration Reduction) mechanism ON/OFF can be switched in the camera's "Optical Image Stabilization" setting. Current lens settings can be checked on the camera's info screen. By moving settings that are not frequently switched to the camera menu, settings can also be prevented from being changed by accidentally operating a switch.
