the 14mm lens is a MUST HAVE lens, especially for anyone into wedding photography or landscape photography. It is super quick and really fills the frame with vibe. It is really easy to feel emotions when viewing photographs taken with the 14mm 2.8 lens as each picture gives you a sense of space yet...
