Nikon AF-S 20mm f/1.8G ED review

 

The Nikon AF-S 20mm f/1.8G ED is fast and wide yet compact and lightweight

Consumer review (warehouseexpress.com)

Lightweight alternative to pro wide angle zooms .

 

Results as good as 16-35 f4 and 14-24 f2.8 at a fraction of the weight. Combined with D810 makes a great unobtrusive street photography outfit

Light, inexpensive and good

 

I have a set of F1.8 primes (85, 35, 20mm) and bought the 20mm to enable me to go a little wider than my 24-70mm lens would allow. The 20mm F1.8 takes the same filters as the 24-70 (77mm) which means I don't need another adapter for my Lee filter...

Wonderfully wide

 

I use this lens for just about everything - travel, architecture, street and landscapes. It is lightweight but still offers superb image quality. I now use a set of lightweight primes in place of big 2.8 zooms with better results and less backache

Best Nikon ultrawide prime ever made

Sharp, light, fast

 

I use this on a D800 and a D3x. I have previously used 20mm Ai-S, 18-35AF-S and 14-24AF-S. Loved my old 20mm Ai-S, and regret that I sold it to get 18-35AF-S. When I decided to try astrophotography, rather than buy another lens I decided to get this...

Consumer review (warehouseexpress.com)

One star off for build

 

I'll be honest, I really wanted the 24mm 1.4 - having tested it in the field from a hire. But I can't justify £1500 on a wide at the moment, so this is the next best thing for FX users. And it's great, it really is. Colour rendition, edge sharpness,...
