5.0 out of 5 stars I love this lens, May 18, 2005

Mike Adam "Mike" - See all my reviews

This lens is very sharp especially at 15mm f8-16 which is the aperture we use for landscape. It can be used on 35mm film and it will be really really wide at 15mm. It can also be used with digital camera. I used with D70 and love it. It is much sharper than sigma 12-24 if you check the mtf chart at sigma web site.

It is my favorite lens.

Ideal for DX, but not so good on FX.
Normally, when you shoot wide angle, you're interested in the whole image sharpness and not only the center. This lens did not quite work out for me on my D700 because of the corner softness. I ended up replacing it with the new Nikon 14-24mm.

Great wide-angle lens for the money. Little fall-off in corners, especially at f8 and above. I would recommend this lens to anyone who cannot afford to buy the Nikon lenses. The only complaint (?) is that the zoom ring takes a bit of effort to turn. The focus is fast and accurate, and pictures are crisp.
