Nikon NIKKOR 24mm f/1.4G ED 24mm

80.7 Video/Cinema Score

Why we recommend this

The f/1.4 aperture combined with Nano Crystal Coating and ED glass delivers exceptional low-light performance and sharpness with controlled flares. Its durable weather-sealed build and 12-blade diaphragm produce a painterly look with expressive bokeh and subtle highlight blooms. This lens is best for portrait and video shooters using Nikon F-mount DSLRs who need a wide-angle prime with organic rendering and shallow depth of field.

Nikon AF-S Teleconverter TC-20E III

41.8 Video/Cinema Score
Nikon F
Why we recommend this ▼

Doubling focal length while maintaining autofocus, this teleconverter uses an aspherical element and a 7-element/5-group optical design to preserve superior contrast and resolution. Its compact, 329g build makes it a highly portable way to extend telephoto reach without the cost of a new super-telephoto lens. This accessory is best for wildlife and sports photographers using compatible Nikon F-mount primes who need 2x magnification and can accept the resulting light loss.
