    OMG, such a comment-bait post, can't resist ;) The 50/1.2 was my biggest disappointment in the whole EF L lineup. And the 135/2 is a...

    I've owned or used most Canon stuff since 2005. Fujifilm is my "main" kit today, but i still keep some old cheap EF stuff around as my...

    I have to say, I don't know how popular it was, but the 400 f/5.6L was a very good lens. Lightweight, optically very good, and...

    Interesting thought. With the EF-S 60 I often use BBF to get rough focus the the good old rocking to nail the critical spot. The MP-E is...

    The lack of a decent RF macro lens is one of the reasons I switched to Olympus for all my outdoorsy stuff. The 90 macro (180 mm...

    The MP-E is heavy but also not the easiest to 'focus'. I find the long throw challenging when my subjects are very small and you have to...

    I have to go with the EF 100mm macro because it still produces wonderful images and my copy works fine even after being beaten up over...

    I asked LR and the answer is a surprise to me. My most used EF-Lenses are in this order: * EF 200/2.8L II USM * EF 100-400L IS Mk II...

    Another vote for the Sigma 150-600. Awesome lens.

    I'm surprised about the 24-105 over the 24-70. The former pays the price for extra range in image quality. The 24-70 F4 is the only EF...

    Out of curiosity, have you actually used the RF 100L Macro? In practice, focus shift is a non-issue with the lens. I think it's more of...

    #1 is my #1 as well. I have owned 3 copies of the EF 135L and they all were spectacular. My #2 is the humble EF 40 2.8. The gateway drug...

    For me, the things that I love the most about the EF lenses I have kept are: The mechanical linking of the focus ring that works even...

    The 135 2L was probably my favorite EF lens though not the most used. However, I do like the RF version better. Granted, images have a...

    My favorite EF oldies but goldies: 200mm f/2L IS - had it and adored it... sold it with regret to fund my first medium format foray...

    For me it has been a bit different. I had a lot of success with the 7D/7D2 as my dedicated macro setups. The 80D I struggled with as the...

    My favourite EF lenses are the EF180mm f/3.5L Macro USM and the EF600mm f/4L IS II USM lenses.

    RF L primes I do not have EF L lenses of: - 1200mm - 600mm - 135mm - 35mm - 20mm Will likely try to get the RF 135mm f/1.8L IS USM...

    For me personally, the favorite EF lens was the 300 f2.8 L IS II. It was compact, hand-holdable and had great performance. I did...
