Hi all,
Im a little confused as to why you would not want a lens with the biggest focal range.
I have a zoom lens 18-135mm which I believed would be as sharp as say, a 18mm-55mm lens. I am having trouble with some landscape photography however... Someone had mentioned that lenses with large zooms, even if left at the shortest focal length, will not be great for sharpness.
Given that its not a bad lens, what difference is there between these two lens between the lengths of 18-55mm? Why should there be a difference in their performance? If they have the same amount of elements to help rid the picture of aberrations, what makes the 18-55mm more attractive for landscape?
Thanks in advance.
