Sharpness
in darkness
The fast, wide f/1.8 aperture of the NIKKOR Z 20mm f/1.8 S produces remarkably
sharp images when available light is in short supply. Its speed and light
gathering capability enable the use of faster shutter speeds when shooting

subject. Attached to the largest full frame mount in the industry, the nine
rounded aperture blades of the NIKKOR Z 20mm f/1.8 S give defocused points of
light a soft, round, consistent shape
Comprehensive distortion control
3 Extra-low Dispersion (ED) elements correct chromatic aberrations (optical
color defects). Nano Crystal Coat (N) virtually eliminates flare, ghosting and
coma. And optical advancements of the Z mount and S-Line render point-light
sources sharper than ever without the usual diamond-shaped distortion"perfect
for environmental portraits, nightscapes and more
Edge-to-Edge Brightness
One of the many advantages of the larger Z mount is its ability to retain even
illumination, especially at the corners of the frame. This results in bright,
even exposures with minimal vignetting
Multi-Focus System
Finely detailed high resolution photography can sometimes be susceptible to lens
aberrations, such as color fringing, especially at close ranges. The NIKKOR Z
20mm f/1.8 S incorporates an all-new multi-focusing system, consisting of two AF
drive units precisely synchronized to deliver fast, accurate autofocusing and
drastically reduce aberrations, even when focusing close to your subject
