Oldies but still goodies: AE-1+Program | FD 28mm f/2.8 | FD 50mm f/1.4 | FD 70-210 f/4
Toss up between the 105 and the 70-200VRII... but the 70-200 would win the day.
Same, which is quite easy for me, as it's the only lens I currently own anyway!Originally Posted by Michaela
For me it'd be my 100-400mm L.
I would choose my sigma 105 f2.8, i find it quite versatile...
Nikon D700 in all it's glory!
The only lens I have that can do birds and landscapes is the 100-400. Not my favourite birding lens, and generally use theh UWAs most of all for landscapes, but if it has to be just one, that is the answer.
since i have been using only one lens all this while (30mm 1.4 on a crop). my crave for a faster lens is still unsettled.
so i can live with a 50mm 0.95/1.1/1.2 imo
x2Very impressed with the 24-105 f4 L, Especially seeing the next Camera will be Full Frame
It would be Nikon 60mm micro lens. I love macro photography too, and I just recently purchased this lens. Absolutely love it.
No brainer for me.
DA40 f2.8 Ltd. Just a brilliant all rounder.
Cheers

It's quite fascinating to see the lenses people would choose. Some I could possibly have guessed, based on people's particular photographic leanings, but a couple have surprised me.
I think it would be quite interesting to restrict ourselves to our 'one' lens for a week or so, to see whether we really could manage with just that lens.
If for some reason my house caught on fire and all my equipment, including my families 60 year archive of photographs destroyed, the only camera+lens I would save would be my Leica M9 with the 50mm f/1.0 Noctilux.
as this chap proves with a wide angle...
