This is a very nice lens and I look forward to many years of beautiful images. Before I purchased the lens I was taken aback by a number of reviews that complained about the tilt and shift locking knobs not tightening properly.

This lens is a gem! If you're used to 'auto everything' this isn't for you. You have to get to know the intricacies of this lens to be able to exploit its full potential. It vignettes at its maximum shift settings, a couple of the knobs are little on the small side, but the positive paybacks are...

Build quality; Sharp Focus; Strong Construction

Complex

This is the only lens I have ever bought used, but it was in pristine condition. I bought this lens primarily to take one picture, but have found a lot of use for it once I owned it. It is not a "point and shoot lens," but it has been a fun lens to learn to use.

"I rented this lens specifically for the purposes of shooting architecture and landscape images. What I found while shooting is that this lens is limited to both the shift & tilt or _swing_ funtion are locked to each other.

This is a great lens that I use for portraiture as well as the common "miniaturization" landscapes. Excellent optics, probably the sharpest 24mm I own, and I have the 24-70, 14-24, and 24/1.4. An excellent lens.

Sharp; Great image quality; Good build Quality; Versatile

Cost; No rotation between shift and tilt

In this review Gary Wolstenholme takes a look at a highly specialised wideangle lens allowing control of perspective and the focal plane via tilt and shift movements.

Superb sharpness; Excellent controls; Great build quality

Quality at extremes of the imaging circle at wide apertures; Tensioning controls sometimes hard to access on my D700

While I hope to create a full Nikon 24mm f/3.5D PC-E Lens, my first priority is to include results from this lens in the lens comparison tools available on the site. This page currently exists because it is required by the database and content management systems for me to post information and...

Recent addition to the range of lens from Nikon is Nikkor PC-E NIKKOR 24mm f/3.5D ED , which in itself is the first wide-angle tilt-shift lens. While the company was first to offer a shift lens for a 35mm system camera, its wide-angle Perspective Control lenses lacked tilt functionality until this...

At full shift; this lens vignettes badly

The 24mm PCE on an FX camera is the next best thing to a view camera without the bulk and inconvenience. It works with both FX & DX formats but really is designed for the D3 and D3x. Image control is not quite as versatile as when using a view camera but for most applications, it does a fine job.

Sharp and built well

Expensive and bulky

Created chiefly for the high-end Nikon D300 and D3, the new 24mm PC (Perspective Control) lens from Nikon can also be used on other Nikon D-SLR cameras, such as the relatively new D60 on which I tested it, albeit with some loss of full automation and functionality.
