Key features

Fast 20 mm FX-format prime lens (30 mm when used with a Nikon DX-format SLR).

Ultra wide-angle: exaggerate perspectives, expand space, and capture immersive images. Ideal for interiors, street reportage, broad landscapes, and underwater photography, as well as for shooting movie footage.

Bright f/1.8 aperture: allows for distinctive images with shallow depth of field and beautifully smooth bokeh. Benefit from the flexibility to shoot with faster shutter speeds and attain clear shots in low light, plus a bright viewfinder image.

High-resolution images: designed to accommodate high-megapixel sensors, this lens enables stunning photos and HD videos. The modern optical construction ensures high resolution and contrast, and point light sources are reproduced with minimal sagittal coma flare.

Superb optical performance: two ED glass elements and two aspherical lens elements ensure crisp, brilliant images. Distortion is exceptionally well controlled for such a wide focal length, and most forms of aberration and colour dispersion are effectively minimised.

Nano Crystal Coat: reduces ghosting and flare for greater image clarity, even in backlit situations.

Minimum focus distance: 0.2 m. Easily get in close and have subjects fill the frame.

Compact and lightweight design: ensures stress-free portability.
