(Canon) Lens Wish List...

February 27th, 2011
I'm new to DSLR's and I'm not rich, but I am fortunate enought to have the 50mm f/1.4 (my fav), the 55-250IS (great value for the price!) and the kit lens- 18-55 (which is highly underrated IMHO).

My wish list includes (in this order)
1- 100mm Macro (IS if I can afford it)
2- a wide angle (maybe Tokina 12-24, not sure)
3- 24-70L ($$$$)

Am I missing something off my top 3 wish list? what are your fav lenses?

IF i did have a canon, the 85mm f/ 1.2 would be on my list!!!!!
February 27th, 2011
Good point. I hear that one is great for portraits!
February 27th, 2011
10-22mm!!!
February 27th, 2011
The 50mm 1.2 L series lens would be on my wish list.

I'm absolutely fiending for the 100mm 2.8L macro - want one SO badly!!! My better half is keen for the new 8-15mm fisheye which is coming out soon as well.

70-200 2.8 IS II is on mine , and a fisheye of some kind!
February 27th, 2011
Canon 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye or 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 EF-S USM
Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L USM
Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II
And If I became a millionaire sometime soon, than
Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L IS II USM :)
Canon EF 400mm f/2.8L IS II USM :)
My dream set haha, last two probably won't happen tho :(

I would love any lens! I only have a canon EF 35-80mm 1:4-5.6 III
Id love a long zoom lens and a macro lens oh and a fisheye !

I love my 85mm f/1.2, probably more than a person should love a lens.

The 24-70 f/2.8 also has my vote, as does the 70-200 f/2.8 IS. Really, those three lenses make up my go-everywhere kit and I can do pretty much any shoot with that.

Other great lenses I've used are the 135mm f/2, the 400mm f/2.8, and of course the beautiful 50mm f/1.2 - I do love primes most of all.

yep what drew ^ said... sooo keen for that fisheye!

Three others I would like to add to @jinximages list are 14 f/2.8, 24 f/1.4 and 35 f/1.4.

i second the wide angle.. of course with my crop body, its not as wide as i'd like...
February 27th, 2011
The 50mm 1.2 L series lens....saving for it now...may settle for the $100.00 one in the meantime....how does everyone like this lens?
February 27th, 2011
My 70-200 f/2.8L is by far my favorite.
