DxOMark published their test results for several Nikon 1 lenses. Their conclusion:
“From our findings on 1 Nikkor lenses, the 18.5mm f/1.8 and 6.7-13mm are the best performing lenses of their type in the range, thus far. However, we’ve yet to assess the new large aperture Nikon 1 Nikkor 32mm f/1.2 which is promising, though perhaps unlikely to outdo the 18.5mm.”
Here is the current 1 Nikkor ranking:
| Lens | Price | DxOMark Score |
| Nikon 1 NIKKOR 18.5mm f/1.8 | $187 | 13 |
| Nikon 1 NIKKOR 10mm f/2.8 | $247 | 10 |
| Nikon 1 NIKKOR VR 6.7-13mm f/3.5-5.6 | $497 | 10 |
| Nikon 1 NIKKOR VR 30-110mm f/3.8-5.6 | $247 | 8 |
| Nikon 1 NIKKOR VR 10-30mm f/3.5-5.6 | $187 | 7 |
| Nikon 1 NIKKOR VR 10-100mm f/4.5-5.6 PD-ZOOM | $747 | 6 |
A quick note on the above list – the 1 Nikkor VR 10-100mm f/4.5-5.6 PD-ZOOM lens is currently listed as discontinued and will most likely be replaced this August or September:
