Nikon's 1 Nikkor 10mm f/2.8 Lens (Black) is a fast f/2.8 fixed focal length lens designed for use with the Nikon 1 CX format mirror-less cameras. Its 27mm (equivalent in 35mm format) focal length is a versatile choice, equally able to handle family snapshots, landscapes, party pictures and portraits.

Using an aspherical lens element, this lens offers excellent correction of lens aberration and wide-angle distortion. The Super Integrated Coating reduces ghosting and flare, and delivers superior color balance. Rear focusing makes the autofocus operation smoother and faster. This is a lens you can carry all day and not even notice--it comes in at less than 1" in length, and only weighs 2.8oz (77 g).

Ultra Compact, Portable and Fast
High quality images of natural scenery, snapshots of daily life and low light situations are rendered with ease. Produce shallow depth of field looks with dreamy backgrounds and set your subjects apart using an f/2.8 aperture and 10 mm focal length (picture angle equivalent of a 27 mm in 35 mm format). Extremely compact and stylish, this is the lens you can take everywhere you go.
Daily Life Clearly Shared
Don't miss any moment of life! Frame it to perfection-whether it's the whole family or just a single person, trust the 1 Nikkor 10 mm lens. Versatility and precision are yours with a wide aperture that makes everything from landscapes to close-ups brilliant.
Fast Lens for Stunning Portraits
With an f/2.8 aperture, low light moments are captured with color clarity and soft background looks. 1 Nikkor 10 mm lens applies two aspherical lens elements to ensure only the highest quality images-even at the widest aperture settings-are obtained.
Great Perspective Shots with Wide Angle
Sweeping landscapes just as you remember them-retold with color clarity. A fast f/2.8 aperture is perfect for shallow depth of field or low light, while the 10 mm wide angle surrenders natural perspective when shooting landscapes at any time of day or night.
Rear Focusing
With Nikon's Rear Focusing (RF) system, all the lens elements are divided into specific lens groups, with only the rear lens group moving for focusing. This makes autofocusing operation smoother and faster.
Aspherical Lens Element
Aspherical lenses virtually eliminate the problem of coma and other types of lens aberration - even when used at the widest aperture. They are particularly useful in correcting the distortion in wide-angle lenses. In addition, use of aspherical lenses contributes to a lighter and smaller lens design.
Nikon Super Integrated Coating
To enhance the performance of its optical lens elements, Nikon employs an exclusive multilayer lens coating that helps reduce ghost and flare to a negligible level. Nikon Super Integrated Coating achieves a number of objectives, including minimized reflection in the wider wavelength range and superior color balance and reproduction.

      Great lens for the V1. Sharp, fast focus, small and lightweight. Very solid build. Waiting for more primes like this for the V1.

        This is the must have lens for the Nikon 1 system. The kit lenses are good but this little guy stays on my camera 98% of the time.

        Comments about Nikon 1 Nikkor 10mm f/2.8 Lens (Black) for CX Format:

        I use the Nikon 1 V1 as my everyday camera. It travels with me at all times. The 1 Nikkor 10mm f/2.8 lens works as my primary lens. I carry the 10-30mm and 30-110mm lenses as well.

        At f/4.0 this is a tack sharp pancake. And even at the widest aperture it is more than acceptable. Unlike the two zooms you cannot turn on the camera by rotating this lens. But when working in downtown areas with tall buildings and narrow walkways this is the lens to have when you want to capture images in a surreptitious manner.

        Comments about Nikon 1 Nikkor 10mm f/2.8 Lens (Black) for CX Format:

        Having purchased the J1, 10-30 and 30-110, I thought I was done. Then a couple of occasions occurred when my wife (the camera's owner) didn't take the camera because it wouldn't fit in her pocket.

        I bought this lens and now it fits in her pocket and gets taken. Why have such a beautifully small camera and not take full advantage of it.

        Optically it's sharp and focuses quickly.
