What Is Everyone's Go-To Lens?
 
Which one lens is everyone using for their go-to lens for everyday and special event occasions?

Currently using a 24-70mm F2.8, although I do miss shooting with primes.

I cannot decide. I swap lenses all day everyday. :(
I wish there was a 11-400mm f2.8 VR that's made out of the best materials possible with awesome everything. Simply the best lens ever made for everything.
One can only dream :)

For the most part I use a Tokina 11-16 and sometimes a 50mm but like I said I cannot decide which would be my go to lens. I like them all, I use them all and I want them all! Gotta catch'em all!!

im using the 24 -105. i want the 24-70 but can't afford it yet

24-105 for walk around lense and 70-200 L IS II for portraits (which is very sharp wide open).

Tempted to get the 16-35 L II. It has a useful range but crappy corner performance on full frame. Can't justify spending that much money on it and having to stop down to F/8 or F/11 to get the corners sharp. I will just wait for the next generation; but knowing Canon, the next gen lens will be doubled in price.

I want to get a 50mm prime again, I sold my 50 F1.8 (my first lens I bought) 1.5 year ago. So light and fast!

Walk around lens: mostly the 5DmkIII + 24-105L, but I also keep the 70-200L IS II in the bag.

Wedding lenses: 8-15L, 35L, 50L, 24-70L II, 70-200L IS II, along with the 1DX.

Tamron 28-75 f/2.8. Definitely want to pick up a Tokina 11-16 f/2.8 and some L lens one day...

J____ 11-21-2012 12:27 AM

I walk around with the 35L, my fav prime

Boostslut 11-21-2012 05:57 AM

The 500L seems to be my most used lens for what I've been shooting lately.

giCe 11-21-2012 11:17 AM

Tamron 24-70 f2.8 vr
Does 90% of what I want
VR is money!

Mashimaro 11-21-2012 05:16 PM

Using the 50L since it's new to me. otherwise, my 70-200 II.

IMASA 11-21-2012 05:55 PM

17-55 f2.8 when I was crop, but ever since I went full frame, I just use a 50mm 1.4

FishTaco 11-21-2012 06:14 PM

Canon 17-55

AstulzerRZD 11-21-2012 07:40 PM

Tammy 17-50 f/2.8 VC!
As much as the VC jumps instead of floats over, it's damn effective [rated for 4 stops].

For events, Magic Drainpipe stays glued to my camera (80-200 f/2.8L). It may not have IS or USM, but the AF-D on it works damn well. Also, audience members seems to not notice a black lens so much as they might a white one!

Nikon 10-24mm
