Having a lens like the 24-240mm that is optically very good considering its range is very liberating. I can't tell you the number of great photo opportunities I have missed over the decades because I had to switch lenses to get the shot and doing this wasn't possible or by the time I did it the opportunity had passed. These wide range lenses eliminates this problem and when they are as good as the 24-240mm you don't pay a big penalty in IQ from using them. I am an opportunity shooter a lot of the time. Especially when walking around and while traveling. I will take specific lenses if I know I will be shooting in low light conditions and a flash can't, or shouldn't, be used. Or if wider angles are needed to get certain framing or thin DoF is needed etc. Plus, as I get older my wife and I just don't have the same physical tolerance to haul a lot of heavy gear around like we used to. I think nearly every photographer would be surprised just how much they would use this lens if it was in their kit.

That covers it very nicely indeed Mike. Well said

Name the gear and I've probably owned it and used it.
