Again, the poll question is very hypothetical. I saw a couple people asking why buy a interchangle lens camera and use one lens. There are several reasons for buying a high end dslr even if you are using just one lens but I won't get into that. The idea behind this poll is which one lens would you buy: the one you absolutely cannot live without!

For me the answer is simple:

-Voigtlander 17.5mm

The reasoning behind that is because I am more into videos than stills. At the same time, voigtlander 17.5mm is a phenomenal lens (looking at pictures I don't own it) for stills! It produces very dreamy shots.

Geez. I thought the most sensible response was to buy a fixed lens camera. There are now a few which offer virtually every advantage of an ILC, with comparable sensors in some cases and they also offer different lens ranges.

So, please do get into what makes an ILC with one lens better.
