About this lens

The Sigma 20mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art is a fast ultra-wide prime for Nikon F-mount - reference-class optical performance, HSM silent autofocus, and extreme speed for a 20mm prime. Widely used for astrophotography, wide-angle environmental portraits and architecture on Nikon full-frame.

Works with

  • Nikon F-mount full-frame DSLRs (D750, D780, D810, D850, D6 and older)
  • Nikon F-mount APS-C DSLRs (acts as ~30mm equivalent)
  • Nikon Z mirrorless via FTZ/FTZ II adapter - AF preserved

Best for

A serious astro-landscape prime - 20mm at f/1.4 is an unusually fast combination, well-suited to night-sky work, aurora, environmental portraits and interiors. Bulbous front element means no screw-in filters. On Nikon Z mirrorless via FTZ/FTZ II adapter, AF is preserved.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use front filters with this lens?

No - the bulbous front element makes a screw-in filter impossible. Specialist 150mm-class filter holders are the workaround.

Is this good for astrophotography?

Yes - f/1.4 at 20mm on full-frame is exceptional for night-sky work, with the Art line's coatings controlling coma and flare well.

Does this lens have image stabilisation?

No — this lens does not have image stabilisation.

  • A proper little treasure trove

    3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
