16-50 should already do a good job when stopped down and low ISO. When wide open it sometimes gives disappointing results at 16 mm. Maybe you should invest in a good tripod instead, if you don't already have one.


I did not want to invest a lot of money into equipment that would not be used much so i purchesed the Sunpak Ultra 7000 TM. It may not be up to the standards of most but should work for me

I would take a long lens for grand canyon. It is very vast and if you take shots with wide angle, there will be no detail. Unless you go down the foreground is relatively uninteresting (i.e. it's empty space), while background has a lot of cool details.

For example, this was at 55mm:



I still found use for wide angle, but only during hiking. Overall, the 55-300 and 90mm lenses got the most use.



Very nice shot! Did you use a Circular Polarizer Filter?
