What was your most used lens for 2020?

D600 then D750 with Nikon 18-35mm f3.5-4.5 used on 100% of my 361 real estate shoots in 2020.
That's a simple and very reliable setup that consistently produces revenue for me.
Happy New Year, UHHers!

The circa 1981 Canon FD 200mm f/4 macro was my #1 used lens for keepers (mounted to a Sony a7II). Merging all the extended configurations, last year's #1 lens was the second most frequent in 2019, the EF 300mm f/2.8L IS II USM (mounted to an EOS 5DIII).

I don't tend to thin my collection of bodies or lenses much, just keep buying more slowly over 45 years. Though I have set a few lenses aside as possible discards.
To answer your heading question, my most used lenses for 2020 were likely my 100mm and 35mm Macro Lenses. I mostly shoot close-ups.

No one rides the bench on my team.

Hmm, I guess, mostly the lens on my IPhone 7. I have a Canon T5i, and T7i, and both were comfortable in their cases. Though I did bring out the T7 for a pic of our neighborhood Rhode Island Red chicken.

My Nikon D-7200 / 18-400 is usually on most of the time. I use my Fuji 16-55 for everything else.

I shoot with the Oly em-1 with the 14-40 2.8 PRO lens. I use this lens about 90% of the time. Great lens.

Interesting how many long or specialized lenses are top dogs. I'm more boring: top spot 24-70 2.8L II on a 5D IV or 77D. 100-400 IS II is second. Amongst my family of primes, either the 100 2.8L IS or 135L 2.0. I bought a 35 2.0 IS late in the year I've been using a lot and just ordered a used 300 2.8L IS II (my first big white) which should take over #2 if not #1. I'll likely sell my 16-35 4L IS (lack of use) and 300 4L IS being replaced.

I don't use lightroom but odds are Sigma 17-70 and Canon 10-18 as #2, Canon 24mm as #3

Most use lens is the 24-105 kit lens from my 5DIII and is now on my 5DIV. This is followed by my 100mm macro and the 70-200 f2.8.
