High-performance, ultrawide-angle 19 mm lens with perspective control that precisely complies with the diverse shooting intentions of professionals. Superb optical performance delivers "high resolution even at the periphery", that maximizes the potential of high-pixel-count cameras, which is a great advantage for the ultrawide angle of view, as well as a "flat image plane" that produces excellent images across the entire frame.
Mechanical structure incorporated in the shift mechanism
Allows smooth and precise adjustment of the lens’ shift position and eliminates the need for lock operation to fix the shift position as well
Ensures comfortable shift operation for efficient shooting while controlling perspectives
With a new "PC Rotation" mechanism, employed for the first time on PC NIKKOR lenses
Direction of tilt operation can be made parallel or perpendicular to shift according to diverse shooting situations and photographers’ intentions.
19mm focal length in FX/35mm format provides an angle of view equivalent to that generally used when shooting architecture and interiors with large- and medium-format cameras
Making the lens familiar for many professional photographers of interiors, in particular
Fluorine coat, applied to the extreme front lens surface, delivers high antifouling performance for easy maintenance
