Why we recommend this

Weighing just 97g, this 20mm f/2.8 prime is an ultra-portable full-frame wide-angle that relies on a Super Integrated Coating for contrast. Its compact build and 62mm filter thread make it a discreet, affordable entry into expansive perspectives on Nikon F-mount bodies with a focus motor. This lens is best for street photographers who prioritize a lightweight setup and can work around the lack of weather sealing.

Why we recommend this ▼

This set transforms existing Nikon F-mount lenses for close-up work by adding 12mm, 20mm, and 36mm extension tubes between the body and lens. The hollow design maintains full electronic coupling for autofocus and auto-exposure, a key differentiator from cheaper manual-only tubes. It is best for Nikon DSLR shooters wanting to experiment with macro photography without investing in a dedicated macro lens.
