The nikon 10.5mm f2.8 DX, the world's first fisheye lens developed for the Nikon DX Format digital SLRs: D1X, D2H, D1H, D1, D100.

No other camera maker makes such a lens for their small-format digital cameras. This Nikon 10.5mm fisheye is a DX-frame-filling fisheye lens, which means it fills the entire rectangular image with a curvy, distorted image and sees 180 degrees from corner to corner diagonally. It is not a circular image.

The 10.5 mm nikon lens enables a unique 180-degree picture angle, close focusing down to 14cm and the kind of incredible depth of field (DOF) properties characteristic of fisheye lenses.

Focus is via two groups: the front group moves in and out and the rear group also moves in and out. Neither rotate. This optimizes the performance of the lens with distance.
