Thru some incredible internet technology, you find yourself limited to a single lens.
What will you pick?
As a follow up question, if you could have a second lens for 10% of the time, what would it be?
1. 24-120 f/4. It must be my amateur eye, but I find this lens to be great. I mean, I love it long time. It's sharp, the VR works well, and it has a very good focal range.
2. 85mm f/1.8. So, I could have almost put my 70-200 f/4 in here. But since I've moved to FF, I'm finding 70-200 a less useful focal range - 200 is not as useful as it once was. The 85 is my answer to the "need absolute sharpness and color over all else." It's focusing speed is Yugo-derived, but when I nail focus... whoa-baby.
