Nikon Nikkor 10-100mm f/4-5.6 VR Lens for Nikon 1 System CX Format, Black {55}

Nikon 1's 10-100mm f/4-5.6 VR: one lens, serious reach.

The Nikkor 10-100mm f/4-5.6 VR covers an unusually wide focal range for a single lens built around the Nikon 1 system's CX format. At 10mm you have genuine wide-angle coverage; at 100mm you have real telephoto reach. That kind of span in one mount means fewer lens changes and a lighter bag without sacrificing the ability to work multiple subjects in a single outing.

Vibration Reduction is built in, which pays off at the long end of the zoom where camera shake becomes a practical problem. The 55mm filter thread is a standard size, so existing circular polarizers and ND filters from other kits likely fit without an adapter. For Nikon 1 system shooters looking to consolidate their glass, this lens handles the range that would otherwise require two or three separate primes or zooms.

Who It's For

Travel photographers who want one lens on a compact Nikon 1 body will find the 10-100mm range covers landscapes at the wide end and distant subjects at the long end without swapping glass mid-scene. Event and documentary shooters who work in variable light benefit from the built-in Vibration Reduction, which steadies handheld shots when conditions aren't ideal. Anyone already invested in the Nikon 1 ecosystem who shoots a mix of wide environmental shots and tighter telephoto framing gets a practical consolidation tool here.
