Tried it in the store, it's their most responsive, fast focussing prime yet. Focus scales are nice, but there are few scales needed for a 14mm!
Have fun, it seemed like an amazing lens!

UPS is delivering mine on Monday. I've been looking forward to this lens for a long time. I'll be heading to Death Valley in about three weeks - I can't wait to put the 14mm to use!

first pics with the 14x
first pics with the 14x
so, the new 14 yesterday afternoon. the daybed test shot is pretty much unmanipulated f9@1/250 or so, no curvature correction but still spat out in C1/7+. maybe a bit of contrast added. i tend to do that.
the patio test (seating/chairs) f9@1/30 or so... didn't really pay attention, just interested in sharpness.
the patio (chairs) test has been curvature corrected in C1/7+ and a tad bit of contrast added for the afternoon backlight through the lattice work. i probably should have swept the gum leaves first but i was too exscited, kind of.
all up i think it is a really good lens. maybe lacking a little in contrast when set on Idiot but on manual it is play withable. at nearly an aussie grand with shipping from sydney (digitalcamerawarehouse.com.au) i think it'll prove to be a good lens in the bag. i will shoot a studio set this weekend, job, so we'll see how it works for pay.

If was not for my goal of 75% usage for dp Merrill cameras this year, I think the GAS would have already gotten to me. Hopefully, by the end of the year I will have saved up for the 14 and 27.
Thanks for the pics.

Gary...how you enjoying the Merrill? Seen your comments on the forums about it. I am looking into this camera, mainly for landscape...If it only had Bulb mode...
