Nikkor 10-18mm! Come On, It’s Fake
Wanna see some good solid-modeling (3d rendering?)
Wanna see some more?

Fake Nikkor 10-18mm
I’ll let the Chinese guys point out the issues here (translated).
In addition- wtf would Nikon make this lens when they just came out with the 14-24mm? If this was a fish-eye zoom or something, then maybe I could see that- but the “samples” from this lens are clearly not fish-eye.
Let’s stop wasting everyone’s time. This is a far better use of 3d modeling skills.

This “lens” is probably fake but I don’t doubt Nikon could (and might) make such a lens; Tokina and Pentax both have similar optics and somebody is buying them…
However, I definitely agree with you about the “far better use of 3d modeling” – are there any more where that came from?

yeah, I’m sure they could design it, I don’t see it being worthwhile for Nikon though.
the latter 3d modeling example- yes, search 3d love dolls
