X70 or X100F to contemplate your Nikon setup. Perfect for walkaround and travel

Has anyone used the XC 50-230 for landscape? How was it.

Planning a trip to Myanmar this September and doing some research on the shots, seems like most are taking with tele lenses so am thinking of getting a budget one for the landscape shots.

Took a stroll around Tanjung Sepat last weekend and Putrajaya this morning. Been so long since I last taken my camera out. Everything taken with XE2 and 35 1.4

Tried a skyline shot of KLCC today at sunset, crappy weather so I might return again for another try.

No idea why but it always seemed like landscape shot from this setup (XE2 35 1.4) is not as sharp as I'd like it to be. Is it the limitation of the 16MP files? Or x trans issue with lightroom?

Thanks bro

Anyway I found the answer to my question, it just seem that 35 1.4 has the poorest performance at f16. Combined with the diffraction, got a pretty bad photo

Is that your only setup? No other lenses or flash?

In that case I think your everyday backpack or sling bag can do, just slot it in. At least that's what I always do haha.
