George, you noticed it, huh? They are indeed very similar to each other in operation and performance. I bought a lens collar for the 40mm lens and used a Black Rapid double strap for this lens and the Sigma 105mm f/1.4. That makes the 40mm lens easier to carry/use for a session like this and it balances well with the other lens. I would not take the 40mm lens on a trip however.
FYI, I will be taking pictures at the mask carnival in Venice starting tomorrow. During the planning part, I was convinced that I would take my 35mm f/1.2 but in the last minute, I decided to take my Sony 50mm f/1.4 Zeiss instead. So, my trio of prime f/1.4 lenses for this event will be: GM 24mm f/1.4, FE 50mm f/1.4 and Sigma 105mm f/1.4. I think the coverage and spread is better served this way. ...Show more →
Sounds similar to my usual kit, sort of - Leica Q2 at 28 mm, and a7r iv with the 50 1.4 ZA (my most used lens) and Sigma 105 1.4.

I don’t have this lens, and I don’t shoot landscapes often but the 24-105 F4 seems ideal to me for those.
Yup, the main reason for me to take that lens with me. Thanks!

Didn't know you were visiting my country
Yes, my old stomping ground many, many moons ago. I got my post graduate degree there or here (today) some 38 years ago... I will be leaving for Venice tomorrow but I will be back in 9 days from today. Thanks!
