wrong section?
It depends. Right now I just have the body cover on the lens opening and several lenses in the case. Generally, I keep my Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 on my D610, my Nikkor 70-300 on my D7100, and my Nikkor 18-70 on my D70s. I keep my Nikkor 80-400 in the bag so that I can change to it on which ever camera I need to (except the D70s which is used by my wife and she says the 80-400 is too heavy for her).

The lens on each of my Canon Cameras (I carry two Canon 5D Mark II - Or rather Have two on the seat of the Jeep next to me) can vary from time to time - However the "Walk-A-Round" lens for one that I use most of is a 24-150mm. The Other Canon 5D Mark II has a Tamron 150-600 for Wildlife. And a Canon 7D with a 10-18mm lens for Wide angle work.
Note that I do NOT usually carry all the cameras at once. However they are in easy reach If I Would Need Them.
Mostly Canon lenses except for the aforementioned Tamron.

Most of the time it's my Nikon 35mm 1.8 prime. Great flexibility, and makes me get close by moving my feet. Next fav is my 85mm 1.8!

Beyond a doubt mine is the Nikkor 24-70, f2.8.
What is yours?
What is yours?
With 27 lenses that could be a difficult or long answer, but a few are used far more than others.
1. smcPentax-DA 35mm f/2.8 Macro Limited
2. smcPentax-A 50mm f/1.7 (film lens)
3. smcPentax-DA 16 - 50mm f/2.8 Zoom
4. Vivitar (Pentax-A) 19mm f/3.8 (film lens)
5. new fav walk-a-round Tamron (Pentax-FA) XR DiII AF 18-200mm LD Asph. (IF) Zoom
6. smcPentax-M 100mm f/4 Macro (vintage film lens)
used with Pentax K-20D camera
used with Pentax K-5 camera
Note, I actually have some (film) lenses that I have never used on any of my DSLRs. They are typically pointless focal lengths for APS-C type cameras. Example, a 28-135mm f/4 is pretty boring, though would be useful for Full Frame use. So once I purchase a K-1 I'll be all set!

Nikon 50 mm f/1.8 is the resident lens. If I am in a town traveling light a Nikon 28-80 mm for street shots.
