Sorry kind of boring shots, but I wasn't taking a new lens out into a monsoon storm and associated humidity.

14mm


24mm


14mm - looking at its cousin


Now for some more landscapes! ... if it fines up on the weekend.

PC in Brisbane are very quick to get stuff out.

What does the big gold N mean?

[dm_td5]

Nikon says it signifies Nano Crystal Coat, personnally I think it stands Nikkor Pricing. These lenses definitely have a difference to their light transmission abilities over other lenses I have, so there must be something in it.

Sweet envy. I am looking forward to seeing your landscape examples. Congrats on your purchase.

One of the best, if not the best!!! Gratzzz!! Do you have a D3?

funny things is, when i bought the 14-24 about four months ago, i was so excited with it.... but since then ive used it probably three times. I can't find a use for it at that wide a fov that the 24-70 can't do.

No, but I'd like a D3... Once I stop buying good glass I'll upgrade the D200. I'm not in a big hurry for the latest camera... well maybe just a little bit... OK I'm seriously thinking about either a D3 or D300

24-70 is pretty much a permanent fixture on the camera, definitely the pick of the lens line up. I wanted the wider FOV as I found I was reaching back in the bag for my 18-200 to get that extra bit below 24mm.

aaahh now whack the 24-70 on a d3 and u get wide as most would ever need.. so u wont ever have a use for the 14-24
