Opinion about a Nikkor lens

I have one, fantastic lens but for landscapes I use my Nikon PC-E NIKKOR 24mm f/3.5D ED Tilt-Shift Lens a lot more. I either us it to frame my subject the way I love it and in perfect Perspective or I flip it and take 3 shots to later stich together, FANTASTIC lens. I now use the 14-24 for more in your face type of shots and interior shots of small spaces like bathroom walk-in closets, small kitchens

It is a great lens. I think for a more versatile lens I prefer the Nikon 24 to 70, 2.8. One thing about the 14 to 24 is you can't get a protective lens (UV or !A) for the front of the lens. That's a huge piece of glass hanging out there.
Good shooting
Good shooting

Check out the cost of the filter adapter rings ($$$) if you plan to use CPL filters for outdoor landscapes.

It's a pretty fantastic lens. I shoot landscapes with my D800 and have the Nikon Holy Trinity. this is a WIDE lens, so just make sure you really have a need for it. I find myself usually keeping on the 24mm end and my 24-70 is just as good. I'd recommend checking Nikon's online store and buying a refurbished lens. I saved quite a few bucks by doing so, and the lenses arrive "as new".
