Sorry, but what are you talking about? Shoot and crop.....I am really wondering how much time you spend travelling and photographing landscapes. I just can\'t see myself going on a trip to Iceland, New Zealand, Patagonia and take this lens with me. Heavy...will always limit me to 55 mm...

What people use today is 24-70 or 24-105 for flexibility. Then they also use UWA like 21, 17 mm or 16-35 or 17-40 or 14-24 from Nikon. And....in many occasions 70-200 (I used it most of the time in Tuscany).


Okay, now I have to ask: what are you talking about? When I travel, my 24-70/2.8 and 70-200/2.8 VRII are staying at home, and depending on where I go, I will pack 2 or 3 of my ZF.2 lenses: 21, 35, 85 or 21, 50P, 100, or similar.


Where and how do you travel and also what do you photograph? What camera you have for these lens? I do not want to come across as not nice, but can you share your work? I just want to see what kind of photography you do when you travel.


Go look through the Zeiss thread, there is a bunch there. I use a D800. Most recently I was on Sylt in August, and before that was probably Denmark. The thing is that I enjoy the most is manual focus primes, and these three primes take up no more space or weight than the two pro zooms, so why would I bring the zooms? I take travel and family photos, although I don\'t post my family photos here.
