Wide-angle with close focusing distance
This addition to Nikon’s mirrorless prime lenses offers a wide focal range, perfect for landscapes and architectural photography. But that isn’t all - A great thing about this lens is that it features advanced optics with a minimum focal distance of just 0.25m. Ultimately, this means that you have an extremely versatile lens that allows you to be really creative with your photography and have complete control of your frame from close-up, all the way to infinity.


Nikon’s Anti-reflective Nano Crystal Coating
Nikon has included their very own anti-reflective Nano Crystal Coating. This coating is integral to this lens and its success as it helps reduce ghosting and flare to a great effect. As a result of this, this lens sees much better image sharpness and clarity where other lenses would not.

Excellent for movies
This lens is great for stills but also an amazing video lens. It features a near-silent and fast autofocus system which is perfect for video work. You’ll also be able to have silent control of aperture and exposure compensation thanks to the control ring, which can also be used as a focus ring when shooting in manual.

Understanding: Aperture

Aperture is the opening in a camera lens that controls how much light enters the camera. It's measured in f-stops like f/2.8 or f/8. Lower f-stop numbers mean wider openings, letting in more light and creating a shallow depth of field (blurry background). Higher f-stop numbers mean smaller openings, letting in less light and creating a larger depth of field (more of the scene in focus). Aperture also affects the quality of out-of-focus areas in the image (bokeh).

Understanding: Lens Types

Different lenses have different purposes to achieve different styles of images, some popular ones include:
Prime Lens: Fixed focal length, sharp images, great for portraits and dark settings.
Zoom Lens: Variable focal length, versatile for different shots and everyday use..
Wide-Angle Lens: Captures wide scenes like landscapes.
Telephoto Lens: Magnifies distant subjects, ideal for sports & wildlife.
Macro Lens: Perfect for close-up photography of small subjects.
Fisheye Lens: Ultra-wide perspective, creates unique images.

Understanding: Lens Mounts

Different camera brands use different lens mounts, which are like connectors that attach lenses to camera bodies. Each mount is specific to a particular brand and camera series. For example, Canon uses the EF and RF mounts, Nikon uses the F mount, Sony uses the E mount for its mirrorless cameras. These mounts dictate which lenses are compatible with which cameras. Some brands offer adapters to use lenses from other systems, but it's essential to ensure compatibility for proper functionality and autofocus performance.

Understanding: Manual and Autofocus

Manual focus and autofocus are two ways to adjust the sharpness of a camera lens. With manual focus, you turn a ring on the lens to bring the subject into focus yourself, giving you full control over what appears sharp in the image. Autofocus, on the other hand, relies on the camera's built-in technology to automatically adjust the focus for you, usually by detecting contrast or phase differences in the scene. Autofocus can be convenient, especially for fast-moving subjects or when you need to capture a quick shot, whereas manual focus allows for precise adjustments and creative control over the final image.
