I´m happy with what I have today :
EF 16-35mm f2.8L II
EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS II
EF 600mm f/4L IS II
Don´t regret buying them for one second.

Getting this one next year to complete the focal Range
EF 24-70 f2.8 II

And I´m torn between

EF 100L IS 2.8 or EF 300L IS II 2.8 or EF 85L 1.2

as my 5th Lens

The one and only lens that I am lusting for right now doesn't even exist.

It is the 14-24L. Canon's equivalent to Nikon's 14-24 - one of the best lenses ever made.

A 16-35 III would also be ok, as long as it is razor sharp across the frame.

1. Canon EF 14mm f2.8
2. Canon EF 35mm f1.4
3. Canon EF 50mm f1.2
4. Canon EF 85mm f1.2 II
5. Canon EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS II

But if we can go with rumors, I'd take the 14-24 over #1. And any version +1 to what's on the list.
