Quote:Liking the 0 grams of weight of the 85mm f1.4, for sure! Still puzzling on the zoom ratio of 1:8.5, though.

The 12-24mm f4 should give the Canon 11-24mm some competition, for quite a bit less.

 

Anyone have an idea what they mean with Nikon (D)? 

Still puzzling on the zoom ratios...
Since it looked like a Google translate job, the 1:8.5 is probably the max. magnification instead.

Nikon (D) means that the lens is sending distance information to the camera (useful for flash work). It's been a standard for the last decade or so, but the first generation of Nikon AF lenses did not have that (same story later occurred with Minolta, who even used the same letter to signify the distance encoding-capable lenses. Check out the Nikon FF section to see that most old lenses have this letter after their names. Example: http://www.opticallimits.com/nikon_ff/61...rafd2028ff
