I'm curious to see how it compares to the 14-24 f2.8 at 24mm.

At f2,8 the 24/1.4G is sharper, here is a link to a test at f2.8:

At f8 they seem pretty close but I plan on doing a comparison test once my adapter arrives.

@Ryan,
Thanks! Great night shots, like the River Candy shop shot the best and I really like that old Buick shot. Yes, I knew this lens was going to be great for night shots so that is why I rented it back in May so I could try it out in Vegas where it really excelled.

All wide open on my 1ds3.

You're using the Nikon 24 1.4G on your 1ds3??

Why not just have the canon variant? Or are you planning a switch?

Coming from the Canon/Zeiss/Leica there are fantastic images in this thread. I really love the rendering of this 24/1.4 lens. It is very similar to the Contax 35/1.4 in its rendering IMO. Great stuff, keep the images coming

Wow, nice photos people!
I was holding out because I was thinking 24mm would be a bit wide for my tastes for weddings, but these look amazing. I hope the Nikon 35mm F1.4 is of the same quality... If not, I may have to go 24mm after all.

few more notes, focus is EXTREMELY slow, when you guys say slow you are giving it a compliment

. Focus is extremely accurate for me. Never misfocused once.

Are you finding this in low light as well? I think I may need to send mine in. It misses focus in low light. My 50 and my 85 don't do that.
