I know there are several of you guys out here who own one of these so I figured I would pass it along. It appears that it will cost about $250 with one filter & be available this summer.

I don't own that lens, but that is a fantastic solution. Might Nikon need to pay a lens royalty to Lee for coming up with this? After all, this will probably get some fence-sitting buyers solidly in Nikon's pasture.

Wow, that's some filter and holder. :eek: It looks like it would be pretty easy for Lee to make that work with Canon's TS-E 17mm too - though that market is likely a lot smaller.

That does look cool. I got the 14-24 last year, but I've tentatively decided to keep my Canon 17-24 to use with filters, since it would probably cost less than buying all new filters & setup for the 14-24 and is a lot lighter for backpacking or traveling.

That looks really sweet. If Lee were to come up with one for the 17mm TS-E like Scott mentions, that would be tempting. Grant, did you mean 17-40, not 17-24?
