[QUOTE="Gladiator, post: 9219, member: 761"] Hello, my widest lens for now is my Nikon 28-70mm f/3.5-4.5 D. I'm saving for a wider one but i'm hesitating between those 3 and was wondering if anyone used them. [B]Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8 AF-S[/B] Love the speed, great optics with nano-crystal coating but not being able to fit a filter makes me think twice, especially for protection. Great for bragging rights too... [B]Nikon 16-35mm f/4 VR AF-S[/B] A bit slow for low light, even sharper than the 14-24mm, has nano-crystal coating, however is has nasty distortion at 16mm (16mm would be the main reason i'd buy such a lens to it defeats the purpose), only one that has VR. [B] Nikon 17-35mm f/2.8 AF-S[/B] Speed is there too, built like a tank and less distortion than the 16-35mm, sharp at all apertures. No nano-crystal coating. So far, i'm kind of aiming for the 17-35mm (the huge difference in speed alone with my 28mm is a reason to upgrade) will a difference from 17mm to my actual 28mm be quite noticeable? I'm using a D700 and tend to be short when using my 28mm in a church or when shooting architectural photos. Any opinions or other suggestions out there i might have missed, i do want to stick with Nikon lenses, unless there's a Zeiss lens out there footing the bill :-) Is there a site where i can see the difference of coverage between sizes, like 14mm, 16mm28mm and so on? Thanks [/QUOTE]
