Poll: What's Your Favorite LensFollowing yesterday’s post about using prime lenses as a compositional tool, we had an interesting discussion in the comments, about Primes Vs. Zooms.

I thought it would be interesting to ask DIYP readers about their favorite lens. Please also let us know why what you’re using it for. Please leave your answers as comments.

I’ll go first:

My dearest is the Nifty Fifty (50mm 1.8), which is one of the first lenses I bought waaaaay back. I still think it is the best value-for-money lens out there, and I find it perfect for portraiture.
