| Virtually any lens can be a "landscape lens". You'll have to be more specific as to your expectations from the lens you're looking for. |

Tokina 12-24mm f/4
Edit to add: Assuming by landscape lens you mean you are looking for a wide lens

| Landscape photography is often associated with super-wide angle (10-15 mm. range) lenses. In my personal experience, however, anything wider than 16 mm. is usually too wide and rarely useful. In the last 3 years I've been shooting somewhat seriously, I've wished I'd had a lens wider than 18 mm. in maybe 10 occasions. But I quite often wish I had a lens in the 100-400 mm. range. My advice would be that before parting with your money you continue to shoot with the 18-70 (Terrific lens) that I see in your profile until you determine exactly what you need for your purposes. |
