Nikon's VR 10-100mm f/4.5-5.6 PD-Zoom Lens is an amazing power zoom lens designed for use with the Nikon 1 CX format mirror-less cameras. Its 27-270mm (equivalent in 35mm format) range gives you a true wide angle, a long telephoto and everything in-between. Because of the Nikon 1 camera's 1080p full HD video capabilities, this lens has a silent zoom motor using a voice coil AF motor (VCM) with three adjustable speeds--making it a perfect lens for shooting video. The Vibration Reduction (VR II) system makes it possible to shoot at much lower shutter speeds, with sharper results, than is normally the case.
Using a High Refractive Index lens, aspherical elements, and extra-low dispersion glass, plus Super Integrated Coating, this lens delivers superb images, still or video. Internal focusing makes possible a smaller, lighter lens with a closer focusing distance.
