WEll you have to be more carefull with such a lens , specially in decaying buildings ...
As far as i saw there's a system to put filters on the Nikon 14-24, which makes it interesting again.

But for TSE lenses ... canon definitely has the best choice of it ... and their 16-35mm is really good too.
true the size and weight of a D3X or D3 is unbelievable, but than i usually only carry 2 lenses with me when exploraing something ...

Yes, I have heard of the filter system for this lens but had never actually seen it in action...thanks for the link. It is a very ingenious system and looks to be very well made but it is absolutely huge and very cumbersome. The other problem is the price....it costs about as much as a mid-range lens.
The 16-35mm is a decent lens but like a lot of Canon's lenses it gets kind of soft in the corners. It has about the same resolving power as the 17-40 (which I have) but sunstars are nicer on the 16-35.

Yes true, it's a bit expensive for a filter system, but at least it seems to work . Well for the size and weight of a 14-24 with the filter kit ... no luck 
A Friend of me is using the 16-35 from canon very often, and his pictures are just fantastic. And the quality is awesome. I never heard about the 17-40 from Canon, didn't know they have one.
Me i'm using a D7000 with a cheap-shit Tamron 10-24 lol

I am not saying the 16-35 is a bad lens but compared to the 17-40 they are about equal when it comes to resolving power and chromatic aberration. At half the price the 17-40 is a clear winner when money is a concern.
Actually I knew you used the D7000 since I peaked at your EXIF data. lol If or when you move to full frame you will see a huge jump in the quality of your images there really is no comparison!

If the result is nearly the same so why not taking the more cheap lens, i completely agree with you.
Yeah i know i could get more quality than i actually have with a full frame camera .. a 5D mk3 wit a 17mm TSE ... i saw this in action on sunday ... it's just awesome stuff... i want it
so i need to sell around 200 Pictures

Thank you very much for the link.
Samyang is always a good advice to get .. but i don't know if 24mm TS lens is what i want .. i definitely would prefer a 17mm but the price of the 24 is very interesting!!

No problem. Samyang's quality control is definitely not the best but it you get a good copy then their products are really good value. I think the 24 TS is a fairly new lens so there isn't a lot of information out there about it yet....but the price is right.
