eh..like dat:faint:......mmmmm:think:..maybe 1 real sparkler in the midst of zirconias

....or maggi mee diet for long long time...

no plans to go film...the thing abt the 17-35...doesnt look as intimidating as the 14-24

be thankful ur MOF don't start asking for precious stones instead of diamonds....

one other thing - 14-24mm dun take any front filters becos of the lens. so all those ND/GND/colour filters are not usable.

Lee is supposed to be making a set-up for this lens. I have not seen it yet.

.....that would be interesting if it materialises....but i thot with all the HDR techniques - no need for filters anymore...tho some looks a little unnatural

After reading your opinions and thoughts, I finally made up my mind on what to get for my DSLR.

i am thinking of buying a 17-35mm now. i wonder if anyone know the best prices now in view of recent Nikon's promotion?
