Seems 14-24 is finally going to get filter capability without use of masking tape and blue tack. Lee Filters is releasing an adapter for Nikon 14-24mm earlu next year.
a CPL is a landscape photographer's single most important filter and it is for reflection control not sky control. even on a wide lens where the polarization is uneven, a CPL has its uses. as much as i want the performance of the 14-24, there still isn't a filter solution i am willing to live with so i use the Nikkor 17-35/2.8 instead.
YES, YES, YES, YAHOOOOOO........ finally, and i'm getting one!
I read sowhere a polariser would be difficult to use on this wide a lens? Grey grad also would be reason for purchase, I'm sure they will think of a pola, they just might want to wait for demand?
Agree with Herb re. CPL, too (I would add color saturation, too—might just be me, but this looks different somehow to using the Saturation slider). Natural-looking increased saturation combined with cutting reflection off horizontally aligned surfaces (like foliage or water) is reason enough there. A CPL will come, I feel.

Thanks for posting this, but in the meantime, I built my own based on a Cokin filter system.
yep, me too. They didn't even solve the issue with light bouncing in the back, so why pay more?
