14L mk II ...most used - with some fast primes ... 100L macro still most fun
In reply to Telhma, 3 months ago

love 14L mk II... still have the 16-35 II....but it is hardly used now

as my first choice, I used to favor the 100mm macro ...

then got the I.S. version... 100mm L macro..

///////////////

for an EARLY morning walk I like to have one or two of these fast lenses

(24L, 35 sigma 1.4, 85L, 135L) and shoot in the weaker light

this routine would happen everyday that the weather, light and mood allowed



AND the 14L....just love the 14L

////////////////

so.......as the light picks up from dark...to sunrise..

the 14L then takes over......this is usually in the city







maybe some OUT of the city too..



I cant seem to go anywhere without it.....

I try to take the 100mm macro I.S. with me.... if a garden is in the plan...

but the 14L and macro fight a lot... about who gets used...along the way

//////

one thing for sure ALL the lenses are more responsive, more accurate and more predictable on the 5D3 versus the 5D2 (which was a nice camera)

I likely use the 14L II the most right now ...this season so far..

as the spring/summer hits it will be a race ...maybe won by the macro...chasing bugs and flowers..

I believe the macro is the most fun I have with a lens WHEN the flowers, bugs and light are there...



/////////////////////

I am sure if I only had three lenses

they would be the 14L II, Sigma 35 1.4 and the 100L macro..

...down to two....the 14L and macro

it would be
