On September 12, 2014, Nikon India announced the launch of the AF-S NIKKOR 20mm f/1.8G ED, a compact and lightweight, 20mm ultra-wide angle lens. Bokeh pictures can be taken with this lens, and it is also possible to shoot close-up shots at a minimum focusing distance of 0.20m. The lens design ensures minimal chromatic aberration. Nano Crystal Coat has also been utilized to reduce ghost and flare. The AF-S NIKKOR 20mm f/1.8G ED is compatible with a wide range of 77mm screw-on filters. It also employs a Silent Wave Motor (SWM) for quiet and smooth autofocus operation. The lens will be available by October 2014 across India for Rs.61,950.
