- I also have Nikkor 20mm and 24mm lenses. The frequency of usage of
- each lens is highly dependent upon one's photographic subjects, style and
- taste. I mostly do scenery and events photography, and I find myself using
- 24mm much more often than 20mm. But I will carry the 20mm whenever I can
- afford the extra ounces. One important good feature of Nikkor 20mm/2.8 is
- its CRC(close range correction) system. It provides excellent image quality
- at close range, and it is fun and exciting to a good picture in which
- everything from a foot to infinite are "in focus".
