Anyone use the Nikkor AFS 24mm f1.4 ED

[marios_pittas]

Hi Kit,

Thank you for your advise. Yes, I am also interested in this PC-E NIKKOR 24mm f/3.5D ED but I likes the f/2.8 if they are coming out I will get it straight away. Still consider about it.

Once again, thank you very much for your advise.

Cheers!

P.S. I have post some shot at Landscape section, kindly with me some C&C.

The PC-E can be found used for around 2K plus (though not very common). And Kit is right, it is a very very wonderful lens If you are interested in throwing things out of focus (thus the f/1.4), you can always tilt the lens (I did some group portraits like that with very pleasant results).

So far ok - tested over 100+ shots on both D3s & D700 with no issue on focusing both close and far wide open as well as stopped down... yes I read about the issues, so tried to simulate those "situations" that I have had read but turn out ok. :dunno:

For bros who own this lens, check this out http://diglloyd.com/articles/LensesNikon/Nikon-24f1_4G.html
