Needs more than 5 stars! This lens is even better than i expected. after getting it in the mail i took it out for a test run taking pictures of my backyard, plants up close wide open and stopped down. and when it got dark i tried it out on the stars with my d700.

Fast / accurate auto-focus; Nice Bokeh; Rugged; Strong Construction

Heavy; Sun Flare Sensitive

Exceptional Crisp Photos - Wide Angle For Interior & Landscape Shots. Love this Lens !

Excellent quality; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Strong Construction; Ultra sharp

This lens is great! I was looking at getting the 16-35 cause it was cheaper and could take filters but heard it wasn't as sharp. It shoots great in low light and the 14mm is good.

Pros: Although perhaps seeming to be a very specialized wide-angle lens, it is an extremely useful range. It captures stunning photos of settings such as large community festivities. They are so natural and undistorted, I do highly recommend this beautiful FX lens. Cons:

Below is a photo of a 340 foot long "box" truss I recently erected for an airplane hangar in Arizona. With limited foreground in which to work, this ultra wide angle zoom lens allowed me to get close to the structure, capture it all, and with no noticeable distortion.

Just did a few test shots, absolutely sharp and fast!

Built like a tank, fantastic optical performance from Nikon. Finally makes up the the trio of f2.8's.....this 14-24, the 24-70, and the 70-200VRii, probably all the glass the enthusiast would ever need.

I got this as a Christmas present to help with my landscape and architectural photography. I am 100% happy with this lens as it has exceptional build quality, the photographs produced are sharp from edge to edge, and the lens is well sized and weighted.

Easy to use; Compact; Build quality

I just returned from europe was very happy with the results I got from my new wide angle lens. Particularly the cathedrals and government building are in the center of town with many obstacles to work around I was able to get some great shots with this lens.

Nikon's 14-24mm f/2.8G ED AF-S lens is a fast, ultra-wideangle zoom designed for full-frame cameras like the D3 and D700.

Excellent optical design; build; chromatic aberration control

Filters can't be used; though this is somewhat to be expected
