What 3 lenses do you dream of and long to own?

[revup67]

200mm F2 - oh so sharp, portrait heaven

600mm F4 IS USM II - I know I'll never own this in my lifetime @ 13k but it would be incredible I'm sure for wildlife (came close with a 400mm 5.6 and a 7D = 640

TS-E 17mm - the bokeh on this lens is fantastic, presently don't own a TS-E lens but would make this a first.

 

[Menace]

400 2.8 IS
200 2.0
85 1.2 II

(already ticked off 70-200 2.8 IS II from my wish list )

Cheers

 

[Erizo]

14mm f/2.8L II
35mm /f1.4L
85mm f/1.2L II

Got the later two, can't get myself to invest in the 14L.

mp-e 65mm f/2.8
14-24 Nikkor
70-200mm F2.8L IS USM

 

[Viggo]

200 f2
400 f2.8 II
1200 f5.6

Any one of the big whites really, 300 2.8, 400 2.8, 500 F4- not fussed which!
Tilt shift 17 or 24
Canon ultrawide lens for landscapes similar to Nikon 14-24

Sadly I don't think I'll ever be able to justify the cash for one of the superteles but there's always renting!

 

[noncho]

400 2.8L IS II
70-200 2.8L IS II

Not invented yet - some great wide prime, 16-18mm.

 

[Joseph M]

85 f1.2l II
200 f2L
24 f1.4L II

The 85 is probably the first one I will get someday (II or the original or the FD) ;D

 

[AmbientLight]

400mm f2.8L IS Mark II, 500mm f4L IS Mark II and 600mm f4L IS Mark II.

Just look at the attached sample picture and you will understand my longing. Currently I consider myself severely focal length limited (max focal length of 200mm, not counting my 2x converter), so birding is a somewhat restricted area for me.

 

[pasghik]

135 f/2
70-200 f2.8L IS II
Nikon 14-24 f/2.8

 

[Secretariat]

400 F2.8L MKII Lens
24 F1.4 MKII Lens
300 F2.8L MKII Lens

 

[Loswr]

My three:

• 300mm f/2.8L IS II
• 200-400mm f/4L IS Extender 1.4x
• 600mm f/4L IS II

Actually, I'm almost 1/3 of the way to realizing my dream - I pre-ordered the 600 II just over a month ago. ;D

 

[Videoshooter]

400mm f/2.8L IS II
70-200mm f/2.8L IS II (Currently have the non-IS version)
Canon 24-70 f/2.8L II

 

[Redder]

My DREAMS:

EFS 35 1.2L (prime for my 7D)
EF 35-70 2.0L IS
EF 20-35 2.0L IS

 

[RLPhoto]

Canon EF 200mm F/2

Then I would be done with my lens selection. ;D

 

[dirtcastle]

TS-E 17mm L
MP-E 65mm
200 f/2 L

This year, I was able to acquire my first dream lens: the 85mm f/1.2 L. But as with so many people who can afford such lenses, I find myself lacking the time to use it enough because I'm always working. It's a vicious circle.

Even if I had the money for a 200mm f/2 L, I don't think I would get one because I'd be paranoid about damaging it. I wouldn't be able to relax while I used it. It's just too precious. Hell, I'm already paranoid with my 85mm f/1.2 L.

 

[Michael_pfh]

24-70 2.8L II
200 2.0L IS
500 4.0L IS II

 

[sandymandy]

- Noctilux 50mm f/0.95 (need camera also )

- 35mm f/1.2 lens (needs to exist first) so..

- 35mm f/1.4 L II

Even if I had the money for a 200mm f/2 L, I don't think I would get one because I'd be paranoid about damaging it.

If u had the money for a 200mm f/2 youd also have the money for getting it repaired. Plus the lens is built very sturdy
