p.1 #1 · Filter Holder for 14-24 Early Next Year


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.

To be honest, I'm a bit surprised it took someone so long to release one. This should make a whole lot of landscape photographers happy.

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.

I heard someone was making one for both the 14-24, and the Canon 17TS. Guess it's Lee. Makes sense, actually.

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?

Good news; saved that link.

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.

I think it actually said that the Circular Polarizer will not be compatible.

It is due to accept 130mm width filters – graduates and some single coloured options, but not the polarizer.

yep, me too. They didn't even solve the issue with light bouncing in the back, so why pay more?
