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).


Canon RF 24-105mm F4 L. fantastic lens.

Great question CHG_CANON.
Minimal travel so low long lens shots. For my D850 I used 105 MM 1.2 Micro for product and portrait shots and my 24-70 2.8 for landscape. To all I wish you a better 21 than 20 And may all your shots be the best!

According to Lightroom I took 10,624 images with my 100mm Canon macro lens. I remember doing a lot of time lapse of butterflies hatching and caterpillars turning to chrysalis. My second most used lens was my Canon 100-400 Mk II lens with 3,200 images. Some 26 were taken with the 1.4x teleconverter on it; coyote in Yellowstone gnawing on a bone.

Nikon D6: Nikon 135mm @ 80%, Praktica 80mm for another 10%.
Yes the Praktica is heavy, with a big adapter but the shots are a touch tiny bit surreal.


Can you please post your most visibly obvious example of the surreal effect ? TIA.
