Not all 24mm obviously, but most of them

Only 18mp, shallow buffer, no mega FPS rate, a £125 lens with only 13 PMPIX score on dxo mark...

Yet still we manage!

Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed them all, and you have stoked my desire to travel. I recently purchased a refurbished SL2 and I've been happy with it so far. Your lens trio is on my list -- I'm still relying on the 18-55 it came with.

Thank you.

The 24mm is peach. Straight up real deal. Got mine mint used for £105. The 50mm F1.8 STM also is as good as it gets on crop (though is too tight for me so sold it) for IQ, it really is. Peach. Got mine mint used for £90.

The 10-18..? Is okay. You can see the distortion in some of the shots. I don't mind that so much.

But the shots come out in my opinion kit lens quality to be brutally honest in terms of acuity and contrast. Colour is good though. I needed to work them a lot in post. Much less so with the 24mm and 50mm.

With the WA kinda depends how picky you are. I sold mine also as just wanted it for Rome mostly the Colosseum to show the folks back home. I am a 35mm guy. Is 98% of my photography is with a 35mm eqvt lens.

If I was a WA guy for shots to m eventual portfolio, I'd want a better lens than the 10-18mm.

But the other two are chicken dinner

I also like the 35mm viewpoint. I have an Olympus OMD E-M10, and I bought the Olympus 17mm f/1.8 for it and rarely use anything else. To me, 35mm feels "normal."
