When photographing vast mountain ranges or wide-open plains, you want a lens that can capture your subject’s breathtaking vastness in stunning quality and sharpness. Having a reliable lens is paramount when you’ve spent hours or days trekking out to a shooting location.
Wide-angle lenses are often the go-to for landscape photographers. There are exceptions to the rule, however, and sometimes a telephoto zoom lens is the best choice to capture the beauty of a mountain peak at sunrise, isolate a section of a mountainside, or portray the immensity of a glacier.
