Question: Will this work on an NEX camera if I buy the Nikon to Sony NEX adaptor?
Document: It is compact, but with the lens hood, it is about the same size as the 10-30mm lens.I had the 10mm/f2.8 lens and sold it in order to buy this one. I didn't find as much benefit from the wide angle lens as I do with this one. YMMV, but the 18.5mm is a very easy to work with distance.
Charts and graphs aside, real world use reveals this to be one of the best lenses currently available for the Nikon 1 line. Although with enough available light, the kit lenses 10-30 and 30-110 perform admirably. TheNikon 1 NIKKOR 10mm f/2.8 (Black)and this 18.5mm prime really let the nikon 1 get some work done. Buy this one first as it is the same as a nifty-50 on a 35mm lens.
This lens is the best lens you can buy for your Nikon 1 camera. It is very sharp and fast at f 1.8. The Nikon 1 18.5mm is the go to lens for my Nikon V1 camera. With the 2.7x conversion factor, the 18.5mm is approximately equal to a 50mm lens on a full frame camera body. Check out some images taken with this lens on Flickr. If you own a Nikon 1 camera, do yourself a favor and buy this lens.
love it. It took me a long time to buy it (I think I researched for like 3 full days). I promise it's great for taking pictures of people. If you wanna go site seeing, this is not the lense for that!
I just got this lens 5 days ago , and I did not take it off my Nikon V1 , its very accurate and sharp lens . When mounted in the V1 , the size is small ( not bigger than bridge camera ) . I wonder when they will launch 10-20 mm f 2,8 ?
Friendly priced, decent bokeh. My standard lens on my V1. Wished Nikon made more primes for their camera system named &#34;One&#34; (and what a stupid name it is. I you write &#34;for their One camera system&#34; it suggests something else)
So.. I'm by no means a professional photographer, or even a reasonably good amateur one, but I do love the 50mm equivalent focal length (which is what this lens is, if you're wondering). It seems to me to be just right in terms of what it captures, and that this lens is a 1.8 max aperture is just fantastic. This made the Nikon 1 V1 a really functional camera for me without a flash attached.
I won't go into why I love my Nikon V1, but I am using it more than my D700 right now (lighter and easier to carry are two of the reasons). But this lens... oh how I love this lens. I use it as a macro,as it has great bokeh and is super sharp. Last night I found it (nestled in the bottom of one of my black camera bags) and I was elated.
I got some great night shots I probably wouldn't have been able to grab with my DSLR (think F1.8 light gathering with the depth of field of a F4.85 lens on FF) without some serious ISO/noise. Even with the most basic Nikon 1 camera, this can take great landscapes and portraits that you wouldn't have a problem hanging on your wall, highly recommended!
However, if I put the camera in shutter-priority mode and increase the speed to 1/50 and take a picture, the resulting brightness is much closer to what the eye sees.Overall, a very good lens and I would recommend adding it to your collection.NOTE: I am running firmware version 1.2 (latest version) on a Nikon 1 J1.
Answer: No nikon only.
