Thanks Steve.
I have seen you posts and the issues you had with that lens. CA is not something i would worry too much about, as its easily cured in post. I always shoot raw so dont mind having to do a bit extra. For me its all about size, and I’d really only use it for holidays, i dont think i could ever give up my 18-135 Nano, at least not for anything thats currently available.
I do get paranoid when buying new lenses, so ill be getting it online with the safety net of being able to send it back. As i have a 5D4 and L lenses I’m prepared to take a hit IQ wise, as the convincence will make up for this, but at just over £400 i will expected it to be decent, and i will check it out thoroughly.
I could get away with the 11-22/55-200 combo, and I expect the 55-200 would spend the most time on my M50, but the reviews ive read of both the 18-150 and 55-200 put the 18-150 ahead in terms of IQ. I guess each will have good and bad copies, but i do like the idea of only using one lens for as much as i can.
My 135L is the least used lens i have, and while I’ll probably miss it at some point i cant imagine a situation where I have to have it.
