Reviews of AF NIKKOR 20mm f / 2.8D lens

Virtues

  • Excellent resolution of the lens, which gives high detail snapshot. Fix does its job. Relatively high luminosity. The ability to use filters of small diameter. Field of view 94 degrees.

disadvantages

  • There are minor distortions that are easy to fix in the editor. A little soap edges (Not critical).

Comment
Great shirik. From analogs, except voigtlander 20 2.8, but there is no autofocus. the rest will not be compared, because it is a completely different segment with both price and technical considerations. Maximally reveals himself at F4 to 7.1 Very satisfied! The lens solved all my questions regarding the wide angle. Both for shooting interiors in catalogs, and for shooting landscape and landscape. I did not find anything like that for such money. Is that sigma 20 1.8 tried, compared ... not that. On sigma did not achieve the desired result as not twisting it.

Virtues

  • High-quality, sharp (on a closed diaphragm), bright, light, removes almost without geometric distortion, blurs the background, focuses from 25 cm.

disadvantages

  • Sometimes autofocus misses (they say that it happens on all widths).

Comment
Very high quality and relatively inexpensive wide-angle fix. Shot while only on the crope. I am satisfied with the purchase. After him and fifty dollars (50 / 1.8G) on the superzoom 18-200VR2 is generally impossible to sim. The quality is very different. Now only fixes ...

Comment
In my opinion, the lens is quite good. Yes, there are certain problems, BUT from the entire Nikon line for FF, this is the only one for a more or less adequate price (this is for those who do NOT earn money with photography). For everyone else, this is a great shirik, which you can take with you on trips, with it the D700 seems like quite a light camera :)
I had many problems with a wide angle - this lens perfectly solves them. What is important, for this money it is VERY difficult to find a lens similar in price / quality.

Virtues

  • cutting
  • light
  • small filter diameter
  • acceptable distortion
  • price

disadvantages

  • someone might not like the lack of a motor
  • for cameras with a huge number of megapixels such as the d800, it is recommended to take lenses with a higher resolution (Zeiss and new G models from Nikon).

Comment
I took looking at test photos and was generally pleased with the choice. The distortions are already of such a level that they can be used as a deliberate effect. An example of uncorrected crooked distortion (d300):
