    Re: Your Top 3 Lens?



    Hate is a strong word, the type of photography I do is usually too fast or with a lot light so IS is NOT needed. I don't need it, doesn't mean that I hate it. I really thinkg IS is a great innovation in modern photography.


    Anyways my favorite 3


    70-200 f/2.8 L IS


    400 f/5.6L


    500 f/4 L IS





    Edit: added "NOT"

    3) EF 100 f2.8 Macro

    1) Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS
    2) Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS
    3) Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 or Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS (I'd hate to be without either of them!)

    My favorite lens so far is the 24-105 f4 IS L. It's a fantastic walkabout lens for everyday needs. I also use it for wide angle shots.


    70-200 f 2.8 IS for the longer reach. I'm waiting with my purchase though until August - maybe there is indeed a new version coming.


    85 f 1.2 II L... My ideal portrait lens. I love it.

    I'm cheating a bit, as i only actually own two of these


    Canon 50mm f/1.8 best $110 ever spent


    Sigma 50-150mm f/2.8 i lucked out and got a very good copy of this lens unlike the few that Brian reviewed


    Canon 300mm f/2.8 don't own this (yet) but i've used it extensively, sharpest, fastest lens i've ever used. straight up amazing piece of glass

    24-105 mm F4 L IS


    100 mm F2.8 macro


    300 mm F4 L IS with the 1.4X extender
