I just got a Lumix S5II and I am totally lost with all these lens options. They told me it takes L-mount but then I see Sigma and Leica and Panasonic and I dont know if they all work or what. I'm going to Japan in two weeks and I just need one lens that can do everything because I dont want to carry a huge bag. My budget is like $1000 maybe a little more if I push it. I'm so nervous about buying the wrong thing and wasting money.
- good for landscapes and maybe people
- not too heavy
- under $1100
Is there like a gold standard for this? I keep seeing 24-105 but then people say 28-70 is better and I'm just confused...
> I'm going to Japan in two weeks and I just need one lens that can do everything Honestly, you'll be super happy with the Panasonic Lumix S 24-105mm f/4 Macro O.I.S.. I've used it for ages and it basically never leaves my camera. Since you have the S5II, the stabilization works together perfectly with the body. It covers everything from wide landscapes to nice portraits. Definitely the safest bet for a one-lens trip.
