Nikon AF DX Fisheye-Nikkor 10.5mm f/2.8G ED - Good Condition | Specialty / Tilt-Shift Lens | Dramatic 180° Ultra-Wide Perspective for Creative Nikon DX Photographers

The Nikon AF DX Fisheye-Nikkor 10.5mm f/2.8G ED (S/N: Not specified) is a masterfully engineered specialty lens, specifically designed for the Nikon DX-format sensor. As the first fisheye lens developed exclusively for Nikon’s digital SLRs, it delivers a striking 180° diagonal angle of view, creating the signature curved distortion and extreme perspective that defined an era of action sports, architecture, and creative fine-art photography. With a fast f/2.8 maximum aperture and Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass, it provides the surgical sharpness and vibrant contrast required to turn ordinary scenes into extraordinary visual statements.

Key Features

• Full-frame fisheye design providing a dramatic 180° diagonal angle of view

• Fast f/2.8 maximum aperture for excellent low-light performance and creative depth control

• Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass element to minimize chromatic aberration and ensure superior resolution

• Close-range Correction (CRC) system for sharp, detailed images even at a 3cm minimum focus distance

• Rounded 7-blade diaphragm for natural, smooth out-of-focus highlights

• Nikon Super Integrated Coating (SIC) to effectively reduce ghosting and lens flare

• Built-in flower-shaped lens hood to protect the bulbous front element and minimize stray light

Introductory Paragraph The Nikon 10.5mm f/2.8G ED Fisheye is the definitive choice for the photographer looking to break free from traditional perspectives. This specific lens is a standout in the DX lineup, offering a level of immersive "wraparound" imagery that standard wide-angle lenses simply cannot match. Because of its incredible close-focusing ability, you can get inches away from your subject to create exaggerated, surreal portraits or high-energy sports shots. Despite its extreme field of view, the ED glass ensures that every detail—from the center to the edges—is rendered with professional-grade clarity. Whether you are capturing a tight interior, a sprawling skate park, or an abstract landscape, this lens provides the mechanical precision and optical brilliance that makes Nikon’s specialty glass a global industry standard.

Condition Report Good condition. The lens barrel shows normal signs of light use and minor cosmetic surface wear consistent with its age. The bulbous front glass and rear elements are optically clear, free from fungus, haze, or scratches. The autofocus mechanism is fast and accurate on cameras with internal AF motors. The aperture blades are clean, oil-free, and snap correctly. The built-in hood is firm, and the specialized front cap fits securely.

Specialist Note "The 10.5mm Fisheye is pure fun in a lens. What I love about this model is how it changes the way you see the world; it forces you to get close and think differently about composition. It’s incredibly sharp for a fisheye, and the ED glass really helps keep those purple fringes away in high-contrast scenes. It’s a rugged, honest piece of Japanese engineering that is surprisingly compact for the power it packs. For any Nikon DX shooter wanting to add a 'wow factor' to their portfolio, this is an essential creative tool."
