Yea landscape photography is def not a thing

Just one question, you personally bring a ladder to your landscape shots? I am 180 cm or about 5ft11" and I have a near constant experience of whatever is in the corners being out of focus due to the near limit of DOF and that is primarily because the ground in front of me is not flat and not sloping away from me.

Don't know what kind of landscapes you shoot but I generally shoot landscapes with DoF as deep as possible. Whether the ground slopes is irrelevant. Stuff like mountains and trees are high off the ground

Could you kindly post a landscape where the corners mattered?

I can't.... you have decided that corners don't matter to everybody, so no such picture exists.

For that much money I want nice corners.
