Hello Dane,
I think you will find that the differences between the various lenses is, in
reality, very minor. Buy the lens that best suits your needs. If you don't need
the faster aperture you will be more than happy with the f2.8 for example. It
will also cost you less, be more compact and lighter weight, and take a smaller
filter, all benefits for someone who is doing landscapes.
