The Nikon PC-E Nikkor 24mm f/3.5D ED Lens is an ultra-wide lens with special "Perspective Control" tilt and shift functions, making it ideal for architectural and nature photography. Using tilt and shift correction will help obtain a natural-looking perspective in a distortion-free architectural image. The PC-E 24mm lens is compatible with all digital and 35mm film SLR cameras (in manual mode). With the latest digital cameras (i.e. D3, D700 & D300, and later models), auto-aperture control is possible directly from the camera itself.

Three ED glass elements provide improved sharpness and color, while Nikon's Nano Crystal Coat virtually eliminates internal reflections for greater image quality. Nikon Super Integrated Coating (SIC) offers outstanding color performance and substantially reduced ghosting and flare.

• Wide shifting range of ±11.5mm, with a tilting range of ±8.5°.

• Three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements offer superior sharpness and color correction by effectively minimizing chromatic aberration.

• Three aspherical elements virtually eliminate coma and other types of lens aberration even at the widest aperture.

• The Nano Crystal Coat virtually eliminates internal reflections across a wide range of wavelengths for even greater image clarity

• High-performance Super Integrated Coating (SIC) offers superior color performance and substantially reduced ghosting and flare.

• Rounded 9-blade diaphragm for more natural appearance of out-of-focus image elements.

Okay, so I have a Nikon. I still don't have the money.

Steal it! LOL

Only $70/mo on a B&H 3-Year Lease. OOPS! Never mind. You must lease at least $5000.

Holy Cow! I think that would be a fantastic lens, but I'll have to wait until I win the lottery to justify that price.

The 45 mm at f/2.8-32/L is fantastic although I wish I had the extra wide at 24 mm. But, got mine brand new at $700 less than B&H price. Could not afford not to get it.

That lens costs more than my D300! Sure would love to have it some day!!
