Nikon AF Nikkor 20mm f/2.8D Wide-Angle Prime Lens + Hoya 62mm UV Filter
Compact Nikon F-mount ultra-wide prime with fast f/2.8 aperture and classic AF-D handling
This Nikon AF Nikkor 20mm f/2.8D is a compact and well-regarded wide-angle prime that works especially well for landscapes, interiors, travel, street shooting, and 35mm film or Nikon DSLR use. Its small size makes it much easier to carry than a wide zoom, while the bright f/2.8 aperture gives it solid versatility for available-light shooting and general everyday use. Nikon lists it as an FX/35mm-format lens with a 62mm filter thread, 0.25m minimum focus distance, and a light 270g build, which is part of why this model remains popular with photographers who want a sharp, simple, no-nonsense wide prime.
Condition:
Excellent physical and working condition. The barrel presents very well overall with only light normal handling wear visible, including a few small cosmetic marks around the exterior and filter area. The front and rear glass both appear clear, and this lens is being sold as free of haze, fungus, or internal dust issues. The mount and contacts look clean, and there are no known functional issues. A Hoya 62mm UV filter is already fitted on the lens, which is a nice practical extra for day-to-day protection.
