Yes its a great lens. 14mm starts to get a slight fisheye effect though and corner performance is not quite as good as the 21 but that's understandable as its wider. The 14-24 makes wide nightscapes very easy at 14mm. The trick is to avoid star elongation above the Milky Way where it gets stretched too much.

Cheers. I enjoy being out in the elements this type of imaging brings. Saw a couple of meteorites in the process. Better than staring at a computer in the dark!
