Product reviewsNikon 10.5mm F/2.8 DX AF ED G Lens

Great (16mm) wide lens for DX cameras

The 10.5mm lens is for use on the DX series such as D500, D300 etc.
Multiply the focal length by 1.5x due to cropped sensor and you have your true focal length (in 35mm format terms)
It's an easy to use lens, although sometimes your exposure can be thrown by the vast field of view you take in.
Distortion is to be expected, it makes for some fun perspectives in your photographs - sometimes you want it, other times it might become tiresome.

However here is the trick and probably what many people won't tell you. When editing photos if you use good editing software you can correct this with a single click.

In Lightroom 6 it's already programmed in as a lens profile adjustment. This makes light work of a typically tiresome task.

Very compact and lightweight, almost smaller than a 50mm 1.8 lens.

My only criticism is the exposed front element. It comes with a push over cap. All in a good lens and great value for money.Read full review...

Great lense for getting them wider shots! Best thing you can have for astro photography! And at 2.8 it's amazing for shooting the milky way & aurora

Use this for night work shooting the milky way and catching the northern lights, amazing lense and fast! The fish eye effect isn't that strong depending on where you place your horizon (middle) but with little post processing it's not a problem at all, this saves you having to stitch several images together when using something like a 17mm 2.8, amazing lense. Although not easy to find a lens cover for it!Read full review...

An ace card in your camera bag

I shoot weddings and this little gem is a perfect little piece of kit to add a few spectacular, eye-catching perspectives to the set. I love it. Brilliant for astro-photography, too. I've managed to capture many photos of the Milky Way with it.Read full review...

total fun!

It's a great laught and a different view! Every one of my friends was running around with my camera taking pictures. It lets basic photographer to do something different and funny without high qualifications and great ideas. Everyone must have seen those photos of dogs with big noses very close to you - this is it!

It is good way to come back to photography if you had a break and also to look differently and take a step to be more creative.Read full review...

Fantastic lens which takes very sharp photos and it also feels very robust for its size.
Never used a fisheye before but it's a must for your lens collection!!

Fisheye lenses are great for occasional use. Immense fun to use though and this lens produces beautiful images.
