This counts as incitement however, and should under no circumstances be allowed.D300 • ZF 1.4/85mm • 1/2000 sec. at f/2.8, ISO 200
Hi SteenI'm convinced that Nikon will reveal a lens roadmap at Photokina September 2008, which will make the new Zeiss ZF Distagon T* 3,5/18mm irrelevant for your landscape work with your new D700
No, unfortunately it's pure wishful thinking and because I think they ought to make a lens roadmap because of the "hole" in their prime lens lineup. I was just being ironical.Hi Steen
Is this 'because they must' or 'because you know'? [snip]
Ahhhh... but isn't that 'je ne sais quoi' the difference between a good image and an excellent one?Hi Steen

To be honest, much as I love the zf 25 f2.8, it isn't really as 'good' as the 14-24 in any technical respect, i.e.
zeiss has:
more distortion
more vignetting
softer corners
curvier focal plane.
What it does have is that certain 'je ne sais quoi' about it, and I guess that will be true about the comparison between ZF lenses any new Nikon primes as well.
