For sure, but not yet available in Nikon Z mount, and I doubt it ever will be.

Zeiss makes great lenses, but I don’t know if it’s really fair or useful to compare Nikon’s new Z series lenses to Zeiss’ lenses. To start, the Zeiss Distagon is manual focus only, it’s not available in Nikon Z Mount, and its maximum aperture is f/2.8 compared to the Nikkor’s f/1.8. The closest (I think) that we get for comparison to the Nikkor in a Zeiss lens is the Batis Series of autofocus Zeiss lenses for Sony A mount, but the closest focal length to this 20mm in that range is the Zeiss 25mm f/2, I believe. So not very comparable to this lens, and not relevant to people who are shooting a Nikon Z Series camera.

I’d love to see Zeiss make some new, modern autofocus lenses for Canon and Nikon mirror-less cameras. I think the days of Sony being the defacto full frame mirrorless system are over, and Zeiss should diversify their offerings.

This always was the standard in this focal lenght so curious to understand why I would buy one over the other.
