Lens Overview — Nikon 10-20mm f/4.5-5.6G

The Nikon AF-P DX NIKKOR 10-20mm f/4.5-5.6G is a wide-angle zoom lens built for APS-C format DSLR cameras using the Nikon F mount. Covering a focal length range of 10mm to 20mm, it gives shooters a broad wide-angle perspective well suited to landscapes, architecture, interiors, and environmental storytelling. The maximum aperture of f/4.5 at the wide end provides a reasonable amount of light gathering for a lens in this zoom range and format category.

Autofocus is supported alongside manual focus, giving photographers flexibility depending on the shooting situation. The lens weighs just 230g, making it a genuinely lightweight option for everyday carry and travel photography where pack weight matters. A 72mm filter thread accommodates standard circular filters such as polarizers and ND filters.

Image stabilization is listed as none in the specifications, which is worth factoring in for handheld shooting in lower light at the longer end of the zoom range. Designed specifically for APS-C sensor DSLRs with the Nikon F mount, this lens is purpose-built for crop-sensor bodies rather than full-frame use.

f/4.5-5.6 Maximum Aperture: Variable maximum aperture provides reasonable light gathering at the wide end for a lens in this zoom category.
