    I was all set to get the 16-25 for my travels later this year, but I've decided that I don't need 2.8 as much as I need 35mm. I decided that the super sharp 16-35 F4 PZ would add another dimension to my "collection" of lenses - only lens with PZ.

    Bought the Samyang 35-150mm F2-2.8 because of your videos! What wide angle zoom would you recommend to fill the wide gap of the 35-150mm?
    Edit: I mainly do photography :D

      @@chrisbrockhurst yes! Sorry had a brain fart. Currently leaning towards Tamron's 17-28mm F2.8 since it's about $115 cheaper than Sigma's 16-28mm F2.8.

    Feel like people criticised the 24-50mm for having a small focal range when one of the most beloved 16-35 has less of a focal range and then this 16-25 is even less or a range. Personally I really don’t like wide focal lengths but if companies are starting to make odd lengths, a 35-85 f2.8 would be a dream for me!
