Is it worthy to buy in 2021 for landscape and street photography? I'm considering between this and 35mm GM. Thanks !
Asked by: KEvin
I think the versatility of the 16-35 GM makes it a great option for a one lens wide angle choice. Although my favorite has become the 70-200 GM for landscapes it could be a unique creative contender for street.
