As a newbie digital SLR refugee from a past life of large format sheet film landscape work this lens was to me a 'must have' item rather than the latest super zoom or exotic telephoto etc.

This is an amazing lens. I purchased this for my Nikon D700 after a workshop with a large format landscape photographer. I use it more and more as I continue to discover its creative possibilities.

The 24mm PCE on an FX camera is the next best thing to a view camera without the bulk and inconvenience. It works with both FX & DX formats but really is designed for the D3 and D3x. Image control is not quite as versatile as when using a view camera but for most applications, it does a fine job.

Sharp and built well

Expensive and bulky

The lens is great. Sharp, easy to use and durable. The only problem with it, is the rise and fall when you are shooting vertical. It is very hard to lock the lens into place if you have big fingers. Although it is a pain, it is still a fantastic lens.

Consistent Output; Durable; Sharp Focus

Tough To Attach

Well worth the money

Plenty features and options on this lens, and can do certain things that applications like Photoshop cannot; Great look and design, and its a very reliable product.

Big and pretty heavy

While I hope to create a full Nikon 24mm f/3.5D PC-E Lens, my first priority is to include results from this lens in the lens comparison tools available on the site. This page currently exists because it is required by the database and content management systems for me to post information and...

A highly specialised wideangle lens allowing control of perspective and the focal plane via tilt and shift movements.

Superb sharpness; Excellent controls; Great build quality

Quality at extremes of the imaging circle at wide apertures; Tensioning controls sometimes hard to access on my D700

Very sharp lens, corner to corner. I am just getting use to PC-E lenses, so there is a learning curve. I have been able to use the lens in both landscape and architecture and the shift function has been very useful. I am also still on a learning curve to remember this is a manual focus lens.

Consistent Output; Durable; Strong Construction

Pros: Strong Construction, Durable, Consistent Output Cons: Other thoughts: Very sharp lens, corner to corner. I am just getting use to PC-E lenses, so there is a learning curve. I have been able to use the lens in both landscape and architecture and the shift function has been very useful.
