F/5.6 is not nearly bright enough for anything but broad daylight. Perhaps you don't shoot a lot in low light, but I do.

How is that important for a landscape? If you shoot a landscape, why would you use f2.8? Most lenses are really sharp at f4 to f5.6 and that is what you want in a landscape (mostly). Same is true for architecture but a tripod is less handy there....

I shoot with available light, it's about as important as it gets particularly when you're shooting after the sun has gone down.
