Read Full Description
At its core, the AF-S NIKKOR 20mm f/1.8G ED features an advanced optical design, incorporating two ASAS (Aspherical) lens elements and two ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) glass elements. This sophisticated construction meticulously corrects for various aberrations, including coma, spherical distortion, and chromatic fringing, ensuring unparalleled sharpness, clarity, and color fidelity across the entire frame. The wide f/1.8 aperture not only excels in dim environments but also allows for exquisite control over depth of field, producing beautifully blurred backgrounds (bokeh) that make your subjects truly stand out.
Performance is further enhanced by Nikon's proprietary Silent Wave Motor (SWM) and a Rear Focusing (RF) system. The SWM delivers incredibly fast, precise, and whisper-quiet autofocus, critical for both stills and video, while the RF system maintains the lens's physical length during focusing, contributing to quicker and more responsive operation. Despite its robust optical capabilities, the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 20mm f/1.8G ED remains remarkably compact and lightweight at just 12.6 oz (355g), making it an ideal companion for photographers on the go who demand uncompromising image quality.
Key Features
Ultra-wide 20mm focal length (FX/35mm)
Rear Focusing (RF) system for swift and consistent focusing
7-blade diaphragm for natural-looking out-of-focus areas
