new Fujinon XF 10-24mm f/4 R OIS
#11
Quote:Not necessarily - a lot of them are made to end at 24mm to mesh with the next lens, a 24-70 or 24-105.
I only know two: Nikkor 14-24mm f2.8 and Sigma 12-24mm.

 

The normal UWA's have overlap (thankfully): 

Nikkor 16-35mm f4 VR

Canon 17-40mm f4 USM

Canon 16-35mm f2.8 USM

Nikkor 17-35mm f2.8

Zeiss 16-35mm f2.8 SSM

Tokina 16-28mm f2.8

 

On APS-C SLR there are only two examples of lenses with less/no overlap (depending on which APS-C standard zoom to put them next to), the Tokina 11-16mm f2.8 DX and the Sigma 8-16mm DC.

Pentax and Tokina 12-24's also.

 

The other UWA's that you list are for FF.  They are not really UWA on APS-C.  The 12-24's are 18-36 FF equivalents...to the lenses that you list.

Quote:Yeah, the focal length range is a bit odd -there isn't a matching 24-xxx lens. Of course, a user might want to skip a midrange zoom altogether, and go for the 35/1.4 and a Tele lens.
 

My thoughts too.  10-24 and 55-200 covers alot.  But I do 80% of my shooting with a 15mm, 28 and 58mm primes...don't need to have every single focal length available.

Well, take the Zeiss 12mm or Fuji 14mm instead. The choice is yours. Smile

The discussion of overlap makes sense in a different perspective: other lens catalogs offer more choice and you can choose whether you want a set which overlaps or not. Indeed the overlap can be helpful (more flexibility, as sometimes you don't have to change lens), but with a price to pay (heavier). Currently with Nikon I have an overlap (12-24 + 18-70) but I'd like to go with the lighter solution without overlap as an alternative. In other words, with Fuji, I'd like to see both a 10-18 (such as Sony's) and a 24-70 or such.

Those are APS-C lenses. The 24-70's are FF lenses. We were talking FF lenses in this APS-C thread.

As is this 10-24. Smile Speaking of this focal length: there is a Nikon and a Tamron sharing it. Smile And though the 24-70 lenses are full-frame, they make sense on APS-C as well when coupled with a xx-24 lens. A few people I know were using this kind of setup.

 

If I'd been shooting Fuji, I would've taken the 10-24 + 35 + 55-200.

That is fine, but the 24mm overlap mentioned was meant in FF terms. The 22-24mm ends of APS-C UWA zooms are not designed to match FF standard zooms.... They merely mimic the UWA zoom range of FF UWA's.

Regardless, they mesh well.
