Since my kit lens (10-30 NIKKOR) to approximately 10,000 images with the message: "Lens error - contact the Nikon service" in the middle of Australia gave up his good spirit and it was doing the unlocking mechanism on the clock, have I decided to purchase the pancake fixed focal length lens. My expectations were fully met to date: , I create from my vacation Remembrance Photos photo books (A4) and with MAGIX PhotoStory on DVD in 2014 animated HD slideshows incl. Short video clips and panoramic images (MS-ICE). As I have already shot with 10mm focal length greater than 95% of my photos and allow both the photobook and the DVD software that zooming, I have no problems. , On the contrary: The pancake fixed focal length lens makes my Nikon1 V1 smaller (coat pocket!), Easier and quicker. Maybe I'll buy on occasion again a 10-100 or 30-100 zoom lens that. , By the way: I have repaired the lens with your camera's Nikon service in Hamburg. Within a week, not only the lens was OK again - and the camera got a new board and a software update. All for free!
