What is your favorite lens? I'm interested in knowing.

It's like picking your favorite movie....so hard (Saving Private Ryan BTW)


I'd almost have to do Zoom and Prime:


135mm f/2 L


24-70 f/2.8L


Whew...stressful....LOL

As others have pointed out, the 85 f1.8 is a lovely lens that lets you do everything from great portraits to indoor action sports with equally superb results. It's my people portrait lens and my indoor dog show candid lens. It's the perfect focal length on a 1.6 crop body and it's obscenely sharp at any aperture less than wide open. And then there's that bokeh. Lovely, creamy and smooth. Oh, and it's affordable. One of the best "bang-for-the-buck" lenses out there together with the 50 f1.4 and the 200 f2.8L -- which I also have and love. Yup, for me it's the 85 f1.8.

Of what I own: 70-200/2.8IS - versatile, quick-focus, great images


Of what I can borrow locally: 85/1.2L - quite crisp look, solves low-light challenges so well


Of what I've used: 200/2IS - you think the 85/1.2 is sharp? This one taught me what my camera can do, let alone the lens' ability.


What might have a chance at the "of what I've used" list: TS-E 17/4 - I'm renting this right now, and I'm already really impressed.

My favorite right now is the Canon 100 f2.8 macro (non-L).

For me, it's a tie between 85 mm f/1.8 and the Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 (not the new version).


The wide angle perspective always manage to put a smile on my face when I use this lens. It's also perfect for fireworks events (you can see what I mean on the Pyrotechnie section ("fireworks" in french) of my website).

I own most of the f/4 L series of lenses, plus the f/2.8 100mm macro.


My favorite is the one I need for the shot, they're all good.


But the one I gravitate to more than any of the others is the Sigma f/3.5 180mm macro.


It's the one lens I try to find an excuse to use.

Ditto. I still haven't decided if I should upgrade to the II. (Guess the decision will be easier when I know the price )

Hopefully it wont be a matter of "if you have to ask how much it costs, you can't afford it." []
