This lens is not one of the sharpest and is recommended to use on the Sony e-mount bodies that don’t have the highest megapixel count, such as the A7, A7II or A7III. This is one of the oldest wide angle lenses for the Sony E-mount system and is still a good choice. One thing to note is that the tele-extenders only work on the GM lenses. Other choices regarding prime lenses in the wide angle category are the Zeiss Batis (mainly the 18mm f/2.8 and 25mm f/2) and the Voigtlander primes (10, 12 and 15mm). When people buy a Canon or Nikon camera, they often assume that they can only buy Canon or Nikon lenses. The sharpness along with its good build quality is still very appealing and the bang for buck is great on this one. A good telezoom is absolutely necessary for some great landscape photographs. If you want to go even wider, the Samyang 12mm f/2.8 fisheye is the widest you can get with a decently fast aperture. They are also compatible with Hasselblad E-mount cameras. There are also photographers who prefer primes to zoom lenses in regards to landscape photography. If I would have to recommend a telezoom lens, then it would be this one. 35mm equivalent: 50mm.

Another good option is the Laowa 15mm f/2. The cheaper alternative is the Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 or Tamron 17-28mm f/2.8. It’s a prime but it’s an extremely good prime! Photo by: 'Albert Dros'. But if you’re on a budget you could also go with the Tamron line up: 17-28 f/2.8, 28-75 f/2.8 and Tamron will probably release a 75-210 later this year (2019). Art line, which pursues the highest performance, to be enjoyed on L-Mount cameras. This depends on your shooting style. THIRD-PARTY E-MOUNT APS-C LENSES: Zeiss Touit E-Mount APS-C Lenses. This lens lacks some range on the wider end but because of this, it is much lighter and smaller than the G-Master. This is the 'King' of wide angle lenses for the Sony e-mount system. This entry was posted in Nikon Lenses and tagged Meike 50mm f/1.2 lens for Nikon Z-mount, Meyer Optik Görlitz Lydith 30mm f/3.5 II lens for Nikon F-mount, Meyer-Optik Görlitz, third party lenses for Nikon F-mount, third party lenses for Nikon Z-mount. According to the most recent reports, third party lens maker Sigma is already working on an RF-mount lens roadmap, which they will reveal in “early 2020.” Some third-party manufacturers are redesigning their existing DSLR lenses for use with the FE mount. If you like hiking, then it’s obvious that you should get the lightest lens.
