This is a much better lens than my previous Tamron 10-24 mm lens. Fast focus, lightweight and good crisp definition. Added bonus of VR (VIbration Reduction) - although not sure it is really necessary on such a short focal length lens.

The Nikon AF-P DX Nikkor 10-20mm f/4.5-5.6G VR has a some big things going for it: an ultra-wide field of view to capture huge swaths of landscape, sharp optics, a featherweight build, optical stabilization, and a very attractive price. But there's some bad with the good.

Light and compact; Covers very wide angle of view; Quite sharp; Optical stabilization; Inexpensive

Soft edges at 10mm; Noticeable barrel distortion; Dimmed corners; Some chromatic aberration; Narrow aperture; Plastic lens mount

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. If improved fit and finish, and a wider aperture are important, consider the Tamron 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5 Di VC HLD as an alternative. But if you're buying on price, it's hard to beat the Nikon, as long as you're aware of its strengths and weaknesses. Design The 10-20mm ($306.95 at Amazon) measures just 2.8 by 3.0 inches (HD), weighs 8.2 ounces, and supports 72mm front filters. Like the slightly bigger (and pricier) Nikkor 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G ED (3.4 by 3.3 inches, 1 pound), its image circle covers an APS-C sensor, a format Nikon refers to as DX. The sm...

The Nikon AF-P DX Nikkor 10-20mm f/4.5-5.6G VR lens is ultra-wide, easy to carry, sharp, and very affordable, but it does have some shortcomings.

The AF-P DX Nikkor 10-20mm f/4.5-5.6G VR lens is a highly affordable ultrawide-to-wide zoom compatible with Nikon's recent line-up of APS-C digital SLR cameras. The lens offers 3.5 stops of Vibration Reduction (VR) performance to help capture sharp images while hand-held or in challenging light.

If you're one of the many people who uses their APS-C Nikon for landscapes, it's time to rejoice – this may be the perfect lens for you, offering a comprehensive zoom range of 10-20mm (15-30mm 35mm equivalent), ultra-wide to wide-angle in a relatively tiny body...

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.

The AF-P DX Nikkor 10-20mm f/4.5-5.6G VR lens is a small, light optic and hardly seems to add any bulk or weight to the D7500 DX format body used for this review. Intended for use on APS-C format DSLRs, manufactured with extensive use of lightweight plastics, do we have here another "Plastic...

After a two day rental, I sent it back and decided to buy one. It arrived today, two days later. With the rented lens I took dozens of sets of six images each...10, 12, 14, 16, 18 and 20mm...from fixed positions to see which focal lengths render the best composition.
