The quest for a UGA for full format is not easy. Until now there were heavy (around 1 kg) and expensive (1000-1400), or fixed focal length, more affordable, restrictive and sometimes even in manual focus. With the new zoom, Nikon signs a successful goal, really light and more affordable. The range, without being extreme, is fairly standard and versatile. The sharpness is impressive against both the center than at the edges, dice the full opening. Autofocus is fast and accurate. I think landscapers, architects, photographers or others seeking psychedelic angles, the 14-24 is still a reference. For others, who seek UGA offering an excellent price / weight / performance, here you have the winner. I recommend.
