This is an absolutely fantastic lens - light for its size, and fast focusing too (not that you often need fast focus for wide-angle shots, that is). Quite simply, once you get used to Nikon speed of focusing, even very marginally lower speeds of Canon feel like an eternity.

If you are even considering buying this product, you know very well already what it is and what it does. I just wanted to emphasize the AF speed and clear markings which, in my view, are better than on comparable products from other manufacturers.

(1) It's smaller and lighter than the 14-24mm zoom.

(2) Accepts gel filters on the rear of the lens. The 14-24 does not accept filters.

(3) This 14mm is a "D" lens so it still has an aperture ring which allows it to be used on an older Nikon film bodies.
Has depth of field scale.
The 14-24mm is a "G" gelding design and had no aperture ring and no DOF scale.

(4) The 14mm uses the motor built into the camera body to auto focus.
14-24mm has a built in SWM silent wave motor.
Both have lightning fast focus.

(5) The 14mm has a seven blade aperture so it gives sun burst stars from point source lights.
The 14-24mm has nine blades and creates round light blobs from point sources.

(6) The 14-24mm performs better when pointed toward the sun or other light sources due to the nano coating.
The 14mm seems to have more internal reflections from any point light sources in the frame.

(7) The 14mm's lens cover is a synthetic leather bag with a draw string which makes it difficult to remove or replace with one hand.
14-24mm has a plastic slip on cover much easier to one hand. I miss the days when the wide angles came with metal slip on covers.

Both optics are razor sharp so, I'll leave it up to you to decide which would work best for you.
As for me I went with the 14mm f2.8 and have no regrets for doing so.

I would have given the 14mm 5 stars if it had the nano coating and better lens cover.

I hope this helps.
Thanks.
