Nikon Nikkor AF-S 20mm f/1.8G ED - Pros & Cons

Build quality is very good
The balance feels good on both large and small camera bodies
The lens feels solid in hands
Autofocus accuracy is also impressive
wider
lighter and much less expensive lens sounded very
AF speed is quite fast
large and rubberized focus ring is nicely damped and operates smoothly

77mm filters will not rotate on the front element
the filter thread appear to be plastic
8G ED is not sealed against dust and moisture
it has no aperture ring
Chromatic Aberration Geometric Distortion Chromatic Aberration
There is no lens extension during autofocusing
barrel distortion in its test results
exorbitantly expensive
it is pretty expensive and often quite heavy to carry around
28mm on full-frame to be a bit too long for my taste
8G to be a bit too long for my taste
it is significantly wider than a 24mm lens
the outer third is soft
The lens barrel is a hard plastic
G-type lens and thus does not offer an aperture ring
