Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8 ED

Nikon’s newest and best wide angle zoom, designed for exceptional edge-to-edge sharpness on the full frame D3 body but also outstanding on DX format cameras, the 14-24 has a Silent Wave Motor for fast autofocusing, two extra low dispersion elements and Nano Crystal coating for superb sharpness even wide open. An f/2.8 aperture in a zoom this wide with full frame coverage is unheard of – Nikon has cemented their place as the leader in wide angle optics with this lens. One note though, there is no way to use a filter (other than modifying a square filter holder) with this lens.

Roger’s take: This lens has caused a huge stir—several reviews have called it the best wide zoom ever made. Its certainly the best I’ve ever shot with, only the legendary Zeiss 21mm Distagon was sharper corner to corner and that was a $5,000 prime lens. This and a D3 are mind blowing—that’s the equivalent of an 9mm rectilinear lens on a DX camera. A week with the “Wide Thing” will change the way you shoot.
This lens is so good that a third party is selling an adapter so it can be mounted to a Canon 1DsMkIII – Canon shooters are willing to focus and set aperture manually to use this lens.

Please note: A screw on filter will no fit on this lens due to the curvature of the glass.
