Nikon NIKKOR Z 20mm f/1.8 S

The Nikon NIKKOR Z 20mm f/1.8 S is an S-Line ultra-wide-angle lens for FX-format Nikon Z mirrorless cameras. It covers a wider field of view than the human eye and renders sharply into the corners even at maximum aperture. Sagittal coma flare compensation reproduces stars as points even at the edges, making it a fit for landscapes, architecture and astrophotography.

This extreme wide-angle prime with an f/1.8 maximum aperture is ready for any conditions. Sharp images right to the edges and strong performance in poor light make it a dependable tool for professionals and demanding enthusiasts alike.

Outstanding image quality

Whether you are shooting detailed landscapes or night panoramas, the lens renders sharply and brilliantly even at maximum aperture. Stars stay round right to the edges, and the nine-blade diaphragm turns light sources into regular sunstars.

Sharp up close and far away

A minimum focus distance of 20 cm lets you get close to the foreground and capture fine detail. The multi-focusing system maintains high resolution across the whole focusing range and, together with soft bokeh, gives you full control over every shot.

Optics without flare

Three ED glass elements and three aspherical elements correct chromatic aberration. Nano Crystal Coat suppresses ghost and flare, so the image stays contrasty even with a light source in the frame.

Made for video too

Focusing is fast, quiet and smooth, and focus breathing is effectively suppressed. The electromagnetic diaphragm changes exposure smoothly, which pays off both in video and in continuous shooting.

Rugged and ergonomic

The control ring, with pleasant resistance, can be assigned to ISO sensitivity, aperture or exposure compensation. The barrel is designed with dust and drip resistance in mind, so it copes with rain and dusty environments.
