So funny...you Nikon users never recognize a good lens till Nikon 
releases it...Canon has had both of these for years.  Canon has 3 tilt 
shift lenses, a 24 (maybe 28...I forget) 45, and 90.  Now Nikon releases 
ONE and you'd think it was just invented.....

Canon had a 20-35 2.8 about 2 years before Nikon had one, then had the 
17-35 3 years ago.....Leica still has none
