Nikon AF-S Nikkor

Yes, but you will need the Nikon FTZ mount adapter to use this F-mount lens on a Z-series mirrorless body. It will retain full autofocus and aperture control functionality when used with the adapter.

No, this lens features a bulbous front element and a built-in lens hood, which prevents the use of standard screw-on filters. You would need a specialized third-party filter holder system designed specifically for this lens if you need to use ND or polarizing filters.

The constant f/2.8 aperture is excellent for low-light photography. It allows enough light to enter the sensor to keep your shutter speeds fast and your ISO settings lower, which is ideal for indoor architecture or night landscapes.

While it is primarily a wide-angle lens for landscapes and architecture, it can be used for environmental portraits. Be aware that at the 14mm end, you may experience some distortion at the edges of the frame, so it is best to keep your subject centered if you are shooting very close.

Yes, it is compatible with DX-format cameras, but the crop factor will change the effective focal length to approximately 21-36mm. You will lose the ultra-wide perspective, but the lens will still deliver sharp, high-quality images.
