Nikon's AF-S 24mm f/1.8 for F-mount — same as ID 1200, possible duplicate listing.
The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 24mm f/1.8G ED is Nikon's fast wide-angle prime for F-mount, providing 24mm at f/1.8 with ED glass and Nano Crystal coating. It targets landscape, environmental, and astrophotography on both FX and DX Nikon bodies.
Optically very good — sharp from f/2.8 with good coma control for astrophotography where point-light-source rendering matters. Nano Crystal coating virtually eliminates ghosting and flare. AF-S motor is fast and quiet with full-time manual override.
Nikon F mount with 72mm filter thread at approximately 355g — compact and lightweight for a fast 24mm prime. No weather sealing despite being a premium prime. Minimum focus distance 20cm — impressive for environmental close-up work.
Available used at mid-range prices providing excellent value. The Z 24mm f/1.8 S is the mirrorless successor with improved weather sealing and optics. Works well on Nikon Z mirrorless via the FTZ adapter with focus peaking for precise manual focus control.
