A will agree with Ginu.
Good landscape photography is much more about technique than the specific lens used.
For example, one of the things that makes your cheap 'kit' lens so poor...is that it's not very good at the maximum aperture. It does get much better when you use it at F8 or F11.
Better lenses don't have as much of a swing in quality, but they are still at their best around F8.
So if you take the time & effort to use a tripod, use a remote or the timer, use an optimum aperture...then your kit lens can give you really good results.
