My All Time Favorite Lenses

My All Time Favorite Lenses

As I have worked with many of the SLR’s and Medium Format camera’s out there, I want to share with you some of my favorites.  In my career I used Nikon, Canon, Pentax SLR’s and all of the Medium Format stuff out there.

My choices are based on my most frequent go for lenses when doing actual projects in the past and present.

Nikon: 28mm f/2.0 Nikkor Al-S
Nikon: 50mm f/1.2 Nikkor Al-S

Pentax: smc Pentax DA 40mm f/2.8 Limited

Pentax: smc Pentax DA Star 16-50mm f/2.8 ED AL (IF) SDM
Pentax: smc Pentax FA 50mm f/1.4
Pentax: smc Pentax DA 12-24 f/4.0 ED AL (IF)

Canon: EF 35mm f/2.0
