Canon Explorers of Light
“To optimize the clarity of my landscape images, one of my secrets is to use a tripod and an ƒ-stop like ƒ/11 or ƒ/16 to maximize my zoom lens in every way possible. In doing so, I use a zoom lens like the Canon EF 100-400mm ƒ/4.5-5.6L IS USM, which is a wonderful landscape lens with which I can extract the areas in the composition that I want and get the clarity I demand. By coupling a tripod and the right ƒ-stop, achieving a great landscape is just one click of the shutter away.”
— George Lepp, Canon Explorer of Light
