As it is designed exclusively for the
Nikon 1 AW 1, this lens is waterproof to 49 feet (15 m) and shockproof
to 6.6 feet (2 m). When shooting underwater, the lens can zoom in and
out utilizing the manual zoom ring and it supports auto distortion
control for more natural looking underwater images. The Nikon lens
delivers the fast shutter speeds needed for action shots or low-light
occasions, such as at sunset.
With one aspherical lens element and one extra-low dispersion element,
chromatic aberrations are minimized and a rounded, 7-blade diaphragm
provides pleasing out of focus areas. The lens' minimum focus distance
is 11.8" (0.3 m). |
