I was debating between the 10-24 and the 12-24 so I ordered them both to compare. Here's what I found: The 10-24 is wider (obviously) by a quite noticeable amount while still maintaining mostly straight horizon lines. I was pleasantly surprised and impressed by this.

I use this lens mostley for landscape / scenery. When I am hiking in the mountains this is the lens I have mounted on my camera. It has given me some great dramatic wide angle shots that are clear and have great color. It gives me the range I was looking for with a DX format camera.

This is the widest angle lens I have ever used and it's a dandy. The zoom is great for interiors, framing is a cinch. Wish the aperture were constant, but overall this lens is an excellent choice. Only done a few landscapes so far but results are promising.

Durable; Easy To Use; Reliable

A wonderful lens for all those who want to have a wide angle and cannot pay for the high end lens. It serves its purpose very well if you can ignore the slight blurring on the edges of the picture.

good

I like the scope it gives me when framing landscape/architecture pictures

There is a little vignette at times

Back in 2004, Nikon pioneered the DX lens concept; that is, lenses specially designed for the smaller DX-format sensor (16×24mm), popular for digital SLRs. Since their image circles do not need to cover the entire traditional 35mm film area (24×36mm), these DX lenses are less expensive to produce...

While I hope to create a full Nikon 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G AF-S DX Lens, my first priority is to include results from this lens in the lens comparison tools available on the site. This page currently exists because it is required by the database and content management systems for me to post information...

This ultra-wide angle zoom lens for Nikon DX format SLRs costs around ￡670 and sports fast silent internal focusing with full time manual override. At only 460g, it is a quite a lightweight lens too and it balances perfectly on the Nikon D300 body used for testing.

The internal-focusing Nikkor is the company's widest DX zoom, with a 2.4X range that scales up to the full-frame equivalent of 15-36mm on Nikon DX bodies. Extra-low Dispersion (ED) elements combat chromatic aberration, and aspheric elements fight linear distortion.
