Processing
------------
Although the lens with 77g represents a true lightweight, it features a high quality metal bayonet. A too rapid wear so you need not fear even with frequent lens changes. The housing is made of plastic, seem to be processed very neat and makes an overall good impression.
Use
--------
Currently it is the smallest lens in Nikon 1 system. With a thickness of just 22 mm, it is wonderfully flat and enlarged the camera unnecessarily, so it fits in your pocket. In English, such a flat lens is referred to as "pancake", ie pancakes.
It has no focus ring, manual can therefore only about Multifunktionswählrad on the back of the camera are in focus. This needs a but not to worry as long as you use the fast autofocus, which works very well with the 10 / 2.8. The maximum aperture is slightly brighter than the other lenses available so you can take pictures even without shaking in some low light with f / 2.8. Exposure times of 1/30 second should not be a problem. Unfortunately, the lens does not have an image stabilizer which would increase the potential for taking pictures at night or in dim light.
Image Quality
------------
In terms of picture quality you have the 10mm 1: 2.8 true joy. The results are sharp and rich in contrast even at full aperture into the corners. Stopping down to f / 4, you can still get some more detailed images, but stop down beyond brings no gain in quality. Vignetting (= Randabdunklung) there is not at this lens handy.
Conclusion
-----
If you want with its Nikon 1 compact as possible a camera with you, the 1 NIKKOR 10mm 1: 2.8 is the best choice. The image quality is excellent and confirmed this decision. Featuring pleasant Wide many buildings fit well as some interior on the photo. Also group shots can thus be realized well.
If you put the other hand, emphasis on an image stabilizer and larger focal length range, one should for 1 NIKKOR VR 10-30mm lens 1: 3.5-5.6 or 1 NIKKOR VR 10-100 mm 1: 4.5-5.6 PD-Zoom grab.
If you helped this review, I am pleased with a "yes" right here in the port.
