Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II
Great little lens. Cheap feeling. AMAZING performance.
Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM
Best of the best. SO HEAVY!
Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
Great image quality. YOU NEED A MONO/TRIPOD!
Canon EOS 5D Mark II
I have 2. Fantastic IQ. I am totally blown away. Much better than 60D
Canon PowerShot S90
Excited to start playing with this. While not as feature rich as s95 and s100, it has the best IQ of the bunch.
Tamron AF 28-75mm F/2.8 XR Di LD Aspherical (IF)
Nearly as good as the 24-70 (or so they say) at 1/4th the price (paid $250 used)
Tamron SP 24-70mm F/2.8 Di VC USD
Worth the money. VERY sharp great focus, nice bokeh (yes it's nice)

Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM
This lens looks SWEET, but man is it pricey! an NO IS!?
Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM
Bokeh + Low light upgrade (this or the Sigma which is sharper below 2.8 and has better bokeh)
Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM
Hear it's the bomb
Sigma 50mm F1.4 EX DG HSM
Best bokeh for the buck, and sharpest from 1.4 to 2.8 (so they say)

Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM
Overpriced dust magnet

Overpriced dust magnet

Pros: This lens produces decent images and has a quick auto focus.Image stabilization is nice for video.
Cons: Stupid expensive. Horrible build quality. Lens lets in dust like crazy. Image...

Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS
Decent optical quality and LIGHT!
Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS
good optical quality, awesome range, light, too slow (f/3.5-5.6) :(
Canon EOS 60D
underrated. Same batteries as 5D2. Flip out screen is nice. Feels GREAT in hand (I don't understand how reviews can say this camera feels plasticky. I think it feels BETTER than the 5DMark II)
Canon EOS 550D (EOS Rebel T2i / EOS Kiss X4)
Fantastic body, just a little too fragile for me.
Sigma 30mm F1.4 EX DC HSM
Will probably sell for 50 1.4 (but is so nice on 60D)
Tamron SP AF 17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II LD Aspherical (IF)
Very sharp. Great lens. Better than Canon 17-55 IS. And doesn't suck (in dust that is ;) )
Tokina AT-X Pro 11-16mm f/2.8 DX
Might keep as FF Prime
