Nikon 10.5mm f/2.8G ED AF DX Fisheye-Nikkor

Designed specifically for use with Nikon D1/D2-series, D70 and D100 digital SLR cameras, this 10.5mm lens provides digital SLR camera users an extreme picture angle, equivalent to that of a 16mm fisheye lens on a 35mm [135] format camera.

The lens is targeted at Nikon DX Format digital SLR camera users who seek the unique visual effects a full-frame fisheye lens lends to landscape and other shots, to taking close-ups, or when shooting within vehicles or other tight interiors.

Optical and close-range focusing performance are both optimized for Nikon DX Format digital SLR cameras. The ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass element minimizes chromatic aberration for clear, natural colors, and the rounded seven-blade diaphragm opening ensures a natural look to out-of-focus elements.

This G-type Nikkor lens is designed with no aperture rings, and offers easier, virtually mistake-free operation because the aperture does not need to be set to minimum.

Features

The first fisheye lens developed exclusively for use with Nikon DX Format*

Ultra wide picture angle of 180 degrees on DX sensor achieved by producing a smaller image circle (the size of the image that is projected by the lens on to the sensor) enabling smaller lens diameter, lighter weight and optimal image quality from center-to edge-to-corner on the image.

Equivalent to 16mm focal length on 35mm

Minimum focus distance of 0.14m (5.5 in.), or 0.03m (1.2 in.) from the lens front, makes extreme close-ups possible

Close-Range Correction (CRC) provides high performance for sharper images when taking pictures up close

Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass element minimizes chromatic aberration

Design enables a combination of wider angle-of-view with optical characteristics that are optimized for Nikon digital SLR camera sensors

Nikon D-type design provides precise distance information for flash and ambient light exposure processes

Rounded diaphragm to make out-of-focus elements appear more natural

G Type DX Nikkor is designed exclusively for use with Nikon Digital SLR models

Built-in Flower Type lens Hood

Fully Compatible with D1, D1X, D1H, D2H, D100, and D70
