       The 14-24mm is an incredible lens - so incredible, I used to use
       it on my Canon camera with an adapter. But I stopped using it
       because of the bulbous "popeye" lens design, which makes it
       difficult to use filters on the lens (the filter holders and
       filters for this lens were very large). The 16-35mm is a great
       lens, much smaller and easier to use, and it easily accepts
       filters. Personally, I shoot now with my Canon 16-35mm f/4 lens,
       which is much smaller than the Nikon 14-24mm (Canon finally
       produced a really great wide angle zoom with this lens, so the
       image quality is similar to that of the Nikon 14-24mm). But I
       also occasionally use my Canon 11-24mm lens - which is also a
       popeye design, but you just can't beat that 11mm angle of view!
