(Edited for disambiguation
I am at a loss to understand how someone can look at the 16-9.net comparison and favour the Canon 14Lmk2 over the 14-24. All the crops seem to show that the Nikon spanks the Canon. The only test in which the Canon was superior, in my view, was the distortion test, in which the Canon was beautifully rectilinear and the Nikon was seriously bulgy. But we have distortion correction in DPP and other software now, so why did Canon sacrifice design currency for that, when it could have made a much sharper lens at the cost of more distortion?
