Should be fine, it is the equivalent of a 25-105mm zoom on full frame, and
your results bear that out. In my Fuji days I used to carry either the kit
lens (18-55mm or 25-82mm equivalent), or two bodies with 23mm and 56mm
(35mm and 85mm equivalent) lenses. Nowadays, I usually just carry either a
24-70 f2.8 or a 24-120 f4 mounted on a Nikon Z7 with me on trips. If I need
a little more reach, I just switch into DX mode (which still gives me 20MP
files) - I know I can always crop, but switching into DX mode makes
composition much easier.

Cheers
