I say this because while a wide angle would seem ideal, it is more ideal if the landscape is close eg a river, and bower of trees over a road. Wide angle is not so good for distant landscapes such as standing on a mountain and looking at the vista, as distant stuff will be too distant to see.I bought my wide angle (Tokina 12-24mm) for landscapes but find I use it only for close landscapes. It is also excellent for cars, buildings, people...anything you can get close to (if you like wide angle lens distortion)</blockquote>
