Not sure this is a serious post, but never mind:

Presumably all the lenses you already own make great landscape lenses. A 24mm does nice wide landscape shots, while a 200mm is great for compressed landscape shots. If you like wide landscapes more you could buy a lens wider than 24mm, if you wanna go for more compressed landscapes you go longer than 200mm.

In other words: every CAnon lens from 14 to 800mm makes a great landscpae lens. Get the one that suits your taste best.

However, that was actually what I was going to say, quite seriously. If only one lens is to be selected, IMO this is it, and with regards to 24-200, it is the best addition IMO.



I have it with me at all times.



Kind regards, Wim

Why L series only? What kind of camera do you have? Which kinds of landscape shots do you have in mind?
