I'd like a lens for landscape photography,

5DM2, so FF body - I've got a CZ 1.4 35mm but would like to go wider.

I was thinking about the CZ 2.8 21mm

Any reason not to go for it?

Maybe! just tell me what "assuage your G.A.S" means :)

The 200mm f/2 wants to be on the list too.. but it'll probably be at the bottom :(
 
G.A.S = gear acquisition syndrome
assuage = to make less intense

I'd put the 135mm F2 on the list too - one of the most beautiful lenses I've shot, cheap considering the ridiculous quality (also because it's a forgotten focal length).

I have the 85mm 1.2 II - so it would fill the gap nicely ;)

I'm starting to wonder do I need to keep the 35mm 1.4 distagon ......I probably do.

I looked at a 180mm L macro a few weeks ago, my fiance said it'd be the last lens I buy this year..... I'll have some cooldown time instead.

I'd second the Canon 135mm f2; it's a fantastic quality lens and seems strangely neglected and a relative bargain at it's price. Great all round; for picking out parts of the landscape, as a portrait lens and as a fast lens for sport. What's not to like? Zeiss 21mm gets rave reviews as a landscape lens.
