Which one lens would you use for landscapes?

[pavelbarchuk]

Going to Minnesota in a few months to visit family and do a ton of photography. Planning on renting a lens. I want a very sharp wide angle, prime lens. I'll also do some night photography of city skylines.

I used to own the sigma 35mm 1.4, but returned it for focus issues. Now planning on renting it again because its such a sharp lens and a focal length that is really useful.

I own a Nikon D800 camera + Nikon 14-24mm 2.8 lens, which is nice, but soft in the corners when I shoot at 17mm and wider. Even at 24mm, besides open fields and mountains, its not really practical. Also own the 70-200 2.8, sigma 85mm 1.4, sigma 105 2.8 macro, 50mm 1.8, and tamron 28-75 2.8...

I was thinking of renting or even buying the nikon 24mm, 35 1.4, 16-35mm, or even the 24-70 2.8...

if you were to use only 1 lens for landscapes, which lens would it be?

Since youre shooting a high res d800 shoot a wide prime like 20mm and crop.
