One to go

I bought this lens three months ago because of versatile zoom, wr and iq. The lens has not disappointed me at all as a very good allround lens. If I just had to have one lens, this would be it.
I have manny other lenses, but they are more specialized, but this is always among the lenses I bring when I´m on a trip, hike, abroad.
Recomended.

After looking at the photos in this thread, I decided pick up this lens for my street photography. I'm, so happy to say it's performing as I hoped.

Most likely posted before but I love those early morning smoky scenes from Great Smoky Mountain NP.

Just the type I'm prone to snag my head on in passing
