The lens is compact and lightweight, and has a minimum focus distance of 0.2m for close-up portraits.
The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 20MM F/1.8G ED is compatible with 77mm screw-on filters and employs a Silent Wave Motor (SWM) for quiet yet smooth autofocus (AF) operation.
When used with a Nikon DX-format digital SLR camera, the effective angle of view is equivalent to that of a lens with a 30mm focal length in 35mm [135] format.

The SB-500 features a guide number of 24/78.7 (ISO 100, m/ft), based on the angle of view of a 24mm lens (FX-format).
The compact and lightweight design makes it extremely portable, and the SB-500 is
compatible with readily-available AA-size batteries.

provide additional natural light for close-up still shooting.
