645Z Lenses.

Jefflocke · 11-29-2014, 04:41 PM

Hi guys,

Some advise please, what quality lenses would you recommend for landscape photography using the 645Z, that are under the $5,000.00 dollar range?

Are any of Pentax Medium Telephoto lenses good for capturing landscapes/buildings?

Thank you.

The FA 35mm is a good wide-angle, and of course I'd recommend the D FA 55mm.

If you can afford it, the DA 25mm would be the way to go for buildings IMO.

Would anyone recommend the SMC FA 645 200mm f/4 iF for outdoor/close-up work.

I'm off to South Africa at the end of next month, and want to purchase a good telephoto lens for my 645Z without spending a fortune.

Thanks.
