Landscape lens for r7

[ztm91]

I am new to photography and just recently purchased an r7. Is am looking for a fairly economical landscape lens. There’s several I’m considering such as the RF-16mm 2.8, the new RF-S 10-18, an EF-S 10-18, or EF 17-40mm f/4L. A used 16-35 f/4L Is potentially a stretch option.

I’m not looking to spend thousands of dollars at the current time but also would like to start out with as good as an image quality as possible.

I’d be interested to hear more experienced individuals opinions. Thanks!

well from the for what its worth department, are you taking several images and stitching them together or are you getting the landscape by cropping? I am clueless on stitching images together so I crop one shot. The photo still comes out alright for me but I don't think someone better than me would recognize it as a panoramic! If I remember right this is a 6x18 I made by cropping. Haven't even printed it.



I had a Hasselblad x-pan panoramic I gave to a nephew that's a pro and couldn't afford one at the time. he's done some really nice work with it.

I am not familiar with the R7, but if it takes RF lenses, I got some thoughts for you. You can shoot a landscape with any lens, its tougher with big telephotos, but shorter lenses are more common. I commonly shoot with a 50mm or 100mm that I have. I also have the RF 28-105, which is handy for wider angle shots. These are all under or around $500.

I'm a beginner myself with an R7. I don't have the critical eye of a more experienced photographer but I have the RF 15-30 and like it. It's not a fast lens but does pretty well in good light.

Can I just say that the assumption that everyone knows what an "r7" is may be a little presumptuous.
(I know it's a Canon, but I had to do a search to confirm it).

The question is 9 months old. Everyone had that figgered out long agoo.

I suppose it was more of a generalised comment... There's this 'thing' that some people like to assume everyone else shares their 'knowledge'. Yes old-ish thread, so what the problem with that?

Peeps have had nine months to google "r7 camera". What the problem with that ? You did that search. Good on you. Better info that way.

That's why I avoided this thread. It took me literally seconds to find the answer by "google search." LOL.

Albert's sky's are all blown out of highlights. I would. I would do it differently. bracket or shoot in shutter priority.

 

[JoolsW]

Google search "sky's" eh. LOL. Won't take you long.
