  • Abstract:  The flexibility of the constant aperture, coupled with flawless build quality, will mean you will quickly be looking for ways to raise the $1800 needed to add this to your collection. It may just be the best Nikon lens ever made.

  • The Nikkor AF-S 14-24 is an impressive ultra wide angle zooms lens that outperforms most of the prime lenses in its range resolution wise, with its fast aperture allows for low light shooting (or alternatively some object separation with limited depth...

  • Abstract:  The Nikkor AF-S 14-24mm f/2.8G ED N is a phenomenal lens. It is the sharpest ultra-wide angle lens tested to date. The resolution figures are simply stunning and unprecedented specifically at 14mm and thats straight from the maximum aperture setting....

  • Excellent optical design, build, chromatic aberration control
  • Filters can’t be used, though this is somewhat to be expected
  • It’s not cheap but it’s a hell of a hunk of glass, so expect at least £1,200 on the street. It’s also not the most practical lens, though the 24mm is slightly more sensible. It is a remarkable piece of kit though, and a very desirable op...

  • First, not the focal length. That’s 14-24mm on full-frame, not on the APS-C format. This must be one of the widest rectilinear (i.e. not fisheye) zooms ever made. And that’s not all. Not only does it have an unusually wide maximum aperture for a super-...
