I've been using Lee filters on my Sigma 12-24mm for years. It's tricky and far from ideal but it's "do-able".

Hi gazzajagman,

Just wondering where you picked up the extenders for the lee holder and also the custom ring?

Thanks

Andrew

A slow shutter and second curtain sync would have been interesting too.

Nice pic.

I can't be glad with the adaptor from Mark Welsh or 16-9.net. I ordered mine 4 January and got it 3 Oktober. I directly bought a new Nikon 14-24mm.
But I didn't got any exif data from the lens. Mark said that I should sent it back to him and he will send a new one.
Untill today I have not received a new Adaptor and Mark is not answering any of my mails.
Have anybody the same problems?

That's hardly true: we've exchanged dozens of emails on this subject: I received your faulty chip adaptor at the end of last week and your second one 's being processed for delivery ahead of everyone else this week.

Reading this thread makes me want this lens. My 5D MKII is coming in a month.
When would a new order today be filled? I assume this adapter will fit the 5D MKII?

I believe Fred would prefer hubsand not do business here. You might want to email him. I hope we get another update soon.


So, any 14-24 fall pics out there?

I keep reading about this pin that is required for some bodies and not others over at Marks 16-9 page. Does anyone know if this is a removable pin? Cause currently I have a 1ds2 which requires the pin but if I want to use the adapter on a newer body like the 1ds3 or 5d2 it doesn't require the pin - it would really suck to have to purchase another adapter all over again.

anyone have any insight to this pin thinggy??

This was worth the wait! Thank you Mark! Here is a sample from North Stratford, NH.,manually pre-focused using the lcd monitor for the area I expected the front of the locomotive to occupy. Shot at 1/200 and f2.8 with 5D. Train speed perhaps 20 - 30 mph. Lighting provided by flash units controlled by Pocket Wizards. Have no idea who the person in the bay window facing camera should/could be!

Dang Gary...North Stratford is up there! Where you on your way to Colebrook?

`If the adaptor has a pin and you don't need it carefully dremel it off. At least I *think* that would work If I ever get the adaptor I ordered I'll let you know

Well I was supposed to do fall shoots on friday saturday and monday and this lens would be one of the ones for a few shots I planned. Mark said he was fedexing my adaptor back on wednesday last week. No adaptor has arrived and he stopped replying to my messages. Its like he dropped off the face of the earth on the way to the fedex office. I'm actually worried the way he suddenly fell silent. I hope he was not in an accident of some kind.

PM (and adaptor) sent . . . just back from shooting in Cumbria (which is a bit like falling off the planet!)

If you upgrade from a Mark II camera, the adaptor will still work with the pin, but it's a little easier to mount and un-mount the lens with the pin gone. As the previous poster said, a Dremel does the job nicely . . . the pin is less than 1mm in diameter, so it grinds away easily.

Wasn't someone working on an adapter that would allow the lens to run as it normally would on a nikon?

Autofocus and all? Sounds like one of those too good to be true scenarios
Unless Canon hires the same sorcerers who conjured up the 14-24 design I'll bet we are in adaptorville for a loong time if we want the kind of performance offered by the Nikon UWA.

My adapter just arrived. Nicely built. First class all the way.
Now I just need some cash for the lens!
