One lens which one

[raythefab]

If you could only have one lens which one would you go for

 

[ditchdigger]

easy nikon 50mm f1,4

 

[slicemydrive]

for me it would have to be my canon 100 - 400 dustpump

 

[grumpybadger]

My 500 f/4. I'd marry it if I could...

 

[blue max]

How about this one?

Hope dpreview don't mind my posting a link.

I love the Hasselblad attachment

[raythefab]

I think id chosse my Canon EF 70-300 F4/5.6 IS USM

 

[dcash29]

Maybe a CZ 21mm

 

[desantnik]

If its just one, then Nikon 200-400

 

[photobiker]

Canon (or Nikon if i used them ) 70-200 f2.8 IS
it the lens i use 99% of the time in my day job and it never fails to impress

 

[Wilky76]

Nikon 85mm F1.4D

 

[fallen_mathi]

siggy 30 1.4 ... craking lens

 

[rtjdesign]

18-200mm VR

 

[fleaz]

EF 24-70 2.8L

 

[danbroad]

my 70-300VR.

I'm actually thinking about unloading nearly all of my kit except the D80, a fast 50, and this lens. For everything else now I'm using my D-lux..

 

[tbm]

EFS 17-55. Of all my lenses it's the most versitile and often used..

That said I'd miss all the others as they all have a job to do.

 

[swag72]

OMG, only 1? It would have to be my EF-S 17-55 f2.8. Fantastic lens and by far and away my most used.

 

[malla1962]

300f2.8Lis

 

[Les McLean]

135mm f2

 

[Richard.T]

My sigma 70-200 f/2.8

 

[Canon Bob]

300f2.8Lis

 

[rickj]

70-200 f2.8 IS

 

[Mr_Sukebe]

24-105 F4L IS, great all rounder.

 

[Philx1979]

well i really really like the sigma 10-20mm but if could only have one then i`d have to stick with a kit 18-55mm

 

[Nod]

24-70 f/2.8 (for FX). If I was still DX based, it would probably be the kit 18-70 Nikon lens.

 

[Rockshifter]

Canon (or Nikon if i used them ) 70-200 f2.8 IS
it the lens i use 99% of the time in my day job and it never fails to impress

 

[DUNKS]

Canon 17-55 2.8 On my crop 30d this lens would cover almost everything I take.

 

[ekso]

A Nifty Fifty ?

 

[turbotoes]

If we're talking which currently owned lens then it would have to be the 100-400L, it is so damned versatile. However if we are talking dreams, then I would have to go for the 300 2.8 IS, I can keep my TC though right?

[seriousrikk]

I'd have to plump for the 500mm F4 IS if I were restricted to just one lens.

 

[WeddingHack]

50 1.2

 

[specialman]

I was dreaming of one of these up until recently...

... and then Taz sold me one so I'm happy now I have my dream lens - yippee

 

[welly]

My 60mm f2.8 macro

 

[pearce_jj]

interesting - 70..200 seems the most popular so far...

 

[Jayst84]

24-70 2.8 L on my 5D.

It's probably on there 75% of the time, so seems to make sense.

 

[RichiePFlash]

I have a 16-85 on my Nikon D80 camera but i have just invested in a sigma 24-70 f2.8 for my strobist work and i am loving this for everything. Not got the wide 16mm side of things any more but not missing it at all.

Sigma 24-70 f2.8

 

[Wildlight]

I'd have to keep my Sigma 300mm f/2.8... don't know what I'd do without it!

 

[fracster]

300-800 Siggy.

 

[photostar_1]

Not easy...but my 24-105mm IS L is on my camera more than off.

 

[68lbs]

Canon 17-40 is rarely off my camera.

If I could wish for one lens though, it'd be a 24mm TS-E. Trouble is, I also want a 24-105 and a 50 f/1.4, and...

 

[Strangways]

I dont think this is a question that can be answered, because it depends on the type of pictures you take.

My most commonly used lenses are the Sigma 24-60mm and the Canon 75-300mm

But I have a big range of lenses to suit different needs
