Nikon Nikkor 15mm f/5.6 Ai is a manual focus ultra-wide lens for full frame cameras.

Optical design

Has 7 aperture blades, mid-grade lenses usually have this amount of blades. Having rounded blades provides out of focus circle shape closer to a circle. Not the best in terms of aperture.

Physical characteristics

76 mm long, requires consideration if you want to carry in the camera bag. Weights 645 grams so it is a heavy lens, consider using its own lens bag.

Reviews

Great lense for artwork. 5.0/5

Great lense for artwork. Excellent lens/ an excellent replacement for the "go to"lens in the original kit.. 18-55mm. This one extends the image capture to 18-120mm I don't need to drag out the kit telephoto 300mm so oten. This particular lens is as sharp and uses the focus features of the Nikon 5100 to fine tune the focus.. Everything seems to be working well.

Handy lens for in the field.5.0/5

Handy lens for in the field. Light weight,durable, fast auto focus. Sharp images at all focal length.
