go find something that comes close to nikon's 14-24mm. you can't. even
nikon said it's better than all fixed focal length lenses in its range

the real kicker is that it's a zoom lens that's better than a bunch of
fixed focal length lenses, busting that myth too.


How does it compare for aperture?


it's a constant f/2.8


Do you actually understand what that constant f/2.8 means?
That is the maximum aperture which can be maintained over the entire
zoom range.
That fine Nikkor can be stopped down to f/22.
