Canon 16-35mm f/4L IS

The "ultimate" wide angle lens?  It's lightweight, has IS, and captures an incredible field of view!

Canon 70-200mm f/4L IS II

A staple for any photographer!  The versatility is endless and it's a nice, lightweight option for day hikers.

Canon 85mm f/1.8

This is a perfect, lightweight, sharp, and inexpensive prime that really delivers amazing results.  It's not an L, but it's a perfect option for portraits of all kinds.

Canon 50mm f/1.8

A great first lens beyond the kit lens provided with most cameras.  It is inexpensive, sharp, and offers good portraits in a tiny package!

Canon EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5 IS

A lightweight wide angle lens for crop sensor cameras that delivers a much wider field of view.  The IS helps deliver great landscape shots!

Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 Art

The only lens I used on a crop sensor that rivaled the image quality of an L zoom.

Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L II

The standard workhorse.  If I could only keep one... When I head out the door and don't know what to expect, 9 times out of 10 this is what I put on before leaving.

Canon 135mm f/2L

The ultimate portrait machine.  If the headshot is critical, this is the one to do it.

Sigma 35mm f/1.4 Art

An ultra sharp, ultra low light option. The perfect "environmental portrait" lens.

Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L IS

Is it the ultimate sharp, low light zoom?  It can be used for sports, portraits, landscape, etc.  The IS makes it extremely versatile, but what if there is a downside?

Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS

This is probably the best standard zoom lens for crop sensor Canon cameras.  The IS and f/2.8 make this useful in all situations.
