Nikon 24 mm f/3.5 PC-E Nikkor ED
An In-Use Report and Overview Part of Nikon's resurgence during the past year was the announcement in January '08 of three new Perspective Control lenses, a 24mm f/3.5, 45mm and 85mm. The 24mm was the first of the three to ship, (and arguable the most useful for the landscape photographer), and is the subject of this report.

A Father Who Creatively Captures His Kids (20 photos)
If there was a prize that could be given out to the most creative father, I'd hope that it was awarded to Jason Lee.
