The Nikon 10mm f/2.8 is an ultra‑wide prime that delivers an exceptionally broad field of view for creative wide‑angle applications. On cameras with smaller formats it offers dramatic perspective and an expansive sense of space, making it a favorite for landscapes, architecture and interior photography where foreground context and sweeping vistas are desired. The relatively fast f/2.8 maximum aperture helps in low‑light shooting and allows some control over depth of field for selective emphasis, while optical construction typically aims to control distortion, vignetting and chromatic aberration using aspherical elements and coatings. Handling such a wide field requires careful composition to avoid distracting converging lines, and photographers often use the focal length to exaggerate scale and include more environment around a subject. The lens is also attractive for night‑sky photographers who need a wide field and reasonable light gathering to capture constellations and Milky Way scenes. As with many ultra‑wide optics, edge performance and microcontrast can vary with aperture and sensor size; consult the linked reviews and samples to evaluate corner rendering and real‑world characteristics for your camera and shooting style. Overall, the 10mm f/2.8 is a specialised tool for creators who want immersive wide‑angle imagery and the ability to record expansive scenes with strong visual impact.
