The minimum focusing distance is 25 centimetres, excellent for macro use. The lens hood can be purchased separately, its small size and weight make it very practical and convenient to use even for photographic sessions of a certain duration.

Both with the open and closed diaphragm the performance is good, despite being a 2.8 it manages very well to capture the necessary lights in order to obtain good shots. The workmanship is classic of the Japanese house, giving resistance and robustness without feeling plasticky. The Nikon AF 20mm f/2.8 D is a lens suitable for all photographers looking for a dynamic and versatile wide-angle lens, capable of being used without the classic limitations of similar lenses. The cost is very competitive and, considering that it is currently out of production, there is a good chance of finding it used and thus achieving significant financial savings.
