Nikon released the new DX 10-20mm AF-P VR lens as an update to the popular 8 years old DX 10-24mm lens. Developers made a very good job of minimalizing the size and weight of the lens, while keeping a very good optical performance.

At just $309.95, the AF-P DX Nikkor 10-20mm f/4.5-5.6G VR is one of the least expensive lenses you can get for a Nikon SLR. It also covers one of the widest angles for APS-C (DX) models, making it a solid option for landscapes, travel, and shooting in tight spaces. To meet its price it does make some compromises, capturing photos with distinct barrel distortion and omitting the fluorine coat we're used to seeing in more premium lenses.

This lens is superb for landscapes and doesn't need a filter. Super sharp right to the edges. The only negative is the light plastic feel, but don't let that fool you, this lens is fantastic.
