Capture Stunning Landscapes with the Nikon AF-S 20mm f/1.8G ED Lens This ultra-wide prime lens from Nikon is the perfect choice for capturing stunning landscapes, cityscapes, architecture and more. Compatible with both full frame FX-format DSLRs and DX-format crop sensors, the Nikon AF-S 20mm f/1.8G ED Lens features a range of optical technologies that ensure edge-to-edge sharpness and beautiful colour reproduction. Its internal construction consists of 13 elements in 11 groups.
It includes two aspherical lens elements, two Extra-low Distortion (ED) lenses and a high performance Nano Crystal Anti-reflective Coating for superb optical clarity, high contrast and minimal chromatic aberration. The bright f/1.8 aperture is produced using 7 rounded diaphragm blades to offer smoothly rendered out of focus effects, and excellent exposure versatility when shooting in low-light situations. The ultra-wide 20mm fixed focal range delivers a broad 94° angle-of-view when mounted to Full-frame cameras, or 70° angle on DX-format sensors.
A minimum focus distance of only 20cm offers additional compositional flexibility and encourages you to exploit the fast f/1.8 aperture for more pronounced shallow-depth of field effects. Featuring a Silent Wave Motor (SWM) for fast, smooth and quiet autofocusing, the Nikon AF-S Nikkor 20 mm f/1.8G ED Lens is a worthy addition to any photographer’s kit.
