Would like some input on the following: I would like to purchase a wider angle lens for architecture and landscapes. Currently I have a Canon 1ds mark2 with a 24-70 f/2.8 that I am using and find that I would like to go wider at times. I also just partially switched to Nikon for field sports, so I have a Nikon D3s and a 400 for that. I am very happy with that combo for field sports.
Reading for the past couple of weeks I am finding that the Nikon 14-24 consistently gets better reviews than the Canon 16-35 ll. So it seems that I should get the Nikon 14-24 for the D3s.
Concern is that the Canon 1ds mk2 has 16 MP, while the D3s has 12. Since I want to use this for landscapes, I presume that the files from the 16 MP Canon would be better. I do not have any other lenses for the Nikon, so if I go with the additional Nikon 14-24 lens I guess I would be switching even further into Nikon. Not that that is bad, but I am not sure I want to do that just yet. Also filters for the Nikon apparently are an issue.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim
