Extension tubes = light loss + inconvenient to use + big size + lot weight then it will not great for Nikon 1 user. Is Nikon really fail?

right and the VR is not that important in this super wide range.
so if 18mm is wide enough , then there is no contest but this new cheap zoom wins over anything else(maybe the 14-24 better but it is too huge).

thanks but I don’t need a heavy wide zoom because I must also carry the 24-70f2.8 and 105f2.8Vr or 70-200f2.8VR when I go hiking.
and ultra wide is not my most used lens anyway, it is important but not most important, so I don’t think it is where most of my money should go for.
to me the 70-200mm is the most important bread and butter kind of zoom and then the 85mm.
but thanks for your comment.

No. YOU think the bokeh is awful. That doesn’t make it a fact. You don’t dictate what looks nice and what doesn’t.

They look excellent for insects in flight photography thanks to that 60 fps electronic shutter. The Nikon 1 gets even better.

laughing, enjoying life and being able to buy all those goodies produced elsewhere at cheapest prices is possible in US, while you are cursing everything in a misirable mood.

Considering how much pseudo-pro junk and hype Nikon is making for the 1-Series, I’m surprise they didn’t make a series of extension tubes with electrical contacts for the 1-Series. However, I wouldn’t be surprised if Kenko will step in and cover Nikon’s fail.

it’s not is opinion, but a fact, the bokeh is awful, and the Samyang is a loooot sharper.

I think this is an interesting lens for it’s bizarre optical effects, but it is definitely overpriced. For ~$150-$200 it would be a fun lens to mess with. It is no match for the Samyang as a useable everyday lens however. Other than the 85mm f/1.4 Nikkor-D, nothing can touch the Samyang for gorgeous bokeh.
