I have no experience with the zoom but there is a clear area were fixed
lenses are superior: they focus closer and permit nice close-distant
landscape pictures (if you see what I mean).
If all you want is a couple of wide angles for nature and landscape
photography, I think it is cheaper, better and more convenient to get
fixed focal lengths. I really believe the zoom is a typical PJ lens.
