L 70-200mm f2.8 IS. MkII. It's a hell of a lens.

Canon 85L

Fuji 56mm 1.2 hasn't left the body in over a year now

I have used a 50mm Pentax m for well over 20 years, and I still use it on my alpha 7. I want for nothing else

Nikon 18-200mm VR II

I like 50s, have over a dozen. Most used is a Pentax m42 8 element on a auto focus adapter to Nikon Z

24-105 for life, that lens is money

I just got the Tamron 35-150 this year and I’m done. I don’t need any more lenses, lol. It’s fantastic.

85mm 1.4 and 24-70mm 2.8, I can’t choose between both so I pick both

On my film camera, my Canon 16-35mm f2.8 L Mk II. It's perfection. Ok ok sure maybe the Mk III is better but whatever.

On my digital crop camera, the Canon EF-M 22mm f2.

12-40mm f2.8 (eq. 28-80) on my OM-1. Unbeatable when travelling.

some dumb answer like "the one i got with me". No but for real tho it's 24 - 105 easily. F4 L by Canon. Perfect. I'm sure the 2.8 is better but I never had one

Fujinon XF35mm f/1.4

No contest at all, it’s one of the best lenses Fuji have ever made, and for what it is it’s also quite cheap.

Eye laser surgery, scary

135 f2, screw it

50mm f/1.2 L RF. I bought it in June and have made some of my best work with it. I loved the EF version but good copies are hard to find and it's a touch soft. But the RF version is the perfect mix of the sharpness of the sigma 50 art and the character of the EF L. Same can be said for the 70-200 RF L.

I just did a small tour of Europe with the tamron 35-150 and it was all I needed. So defiantly that lens

Nikkor 70-200mm 2.8 S is the sexiest lens I own!

summicron 35 f2 asph. Everything I shot can be done with it.

Idk if I stay this broke it's gonna be the 35 (all i have)

Sony 70-350mm

Fujinon SW S 65mm f/5.6. Mofo is the shit.

Canon 15-85. Decent wide and decent zoom. Very good overall lens. Its the lens always on my camera as a default.

And possibly the Zeiss Planar 45/2 Contax G mount. That is a beauty.

Lumix L Mount 24-105 f4.

As a travel photographer, I only carry one 99% of the time anyway. It's a Nikkor 24-300 f5.6 zoom. I can pretty much get it to do anything.

M43 shooter - the Olympus 20mm f1.4.

Weather sealed, great focal length, balances well on my medium sized bodies, and got so much crap because of purple fringing on early reviews that I was able to buy it cheaper new than used. Folks are starting to catch on and it's becoming more popular. Such a nice and compact travel lens.

Right now I'd have to say the Nikon 85mm f/1.2. This thing is so, so good at 1.2.

Sigma 150-600 C

28-70mm 2.8

70 is JUUUUSSST enough for portraits and the rest gets you everything without being comically wide angle.

Nikon 18-200. It might not be the most light sensitive lens out there, can only go down to 3,5 aperture, but other than that it's extremely versatile and it's the lens I use the absolute most just out of convenience.

The Tamron 28-200 is hard to beat

Relatively small and light. Very handy focal range. F2.8 on the wide end. Affordable.

It’s the perfect travel lens

I know it'a not everyone's favourite but I'd choose the 24-105
