Nikon 10-24mm F/3.5-4.5 Overview
The primary user of a lens such as the 10-24mm Zoom-Nikkor will be one who finds standard kit lenses not quite wide enough for their tastes when photographing landscapes or interior views. An added benefit of wide angle optics is their ability to focus extremely close for a unique perspective on macro objects as close as 9.5″ (24cm).
This ultra-wide angle lens incorporates some of the best of Nikon’s technical accomplishments in optical engineering. This 10-24mm lens features two extra-low dispersion (ED) lenses and three aspherical lens elements to reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations. Nikon coats their glass with their own Super Integrated Coating that makes light transmission more efficient, virtually eliminating ghosting and flare.
Focusing is facilitated by a speedy and quiet Silent Wave Motor augmented by an internal focusing design that eliminates changes in barrel protrusion. Full time manual focusing override is available with the M/A focusing switch.
- Wide-Angle Zoom Lens
- For DX format DSLRs, this lens offers a broad and versatile wide-angle range which is the equivalent of a 15-36mm focal length range in the 35mm format
- Silent Wave Motor AF System
- The Silent Wave AF system provides fast, accurate and near-silent AF action
- Internal Focus (IF)
- Design allows faster, smoother autofocusing and eliminates changes in lens barrel length for consistent handling.
- Two Extra-low Dispersion Glass Elements
- For superior sharpness and color correction by effectively minimizing chromatic aberration.
- Three Aspherical Lens Elements
- Aspherical lens elements virtually eliminate coma and other types of lens aberration, even when used at the widest aperture.
- Nikon Super Integrated Coating (SIC)
- Enhances light transmission efficiency and offers superior color consistency and reduces flare.
