Good morning folks,
My favourite lens? a simple answer .... "THE ONE BEST SUITED FOR THE MOMENT 
OF THE SHOOT!":-)

And that's why you hear me say so often  about shooting with several bodies 
hanging about my body at the same time. Sure saves time, making excuses for 
not just the quite correct composition and quite possibly the best filled 
frame at the time of the "CLICK!" :-) Other than that, if only one lens?

I suppose I'd have to say its a 35mm CV f 1.2 that's sharper than a new 
razor blade. I truly must have an exceptional lens as it's incredibly 
beautiful in colour rendering, fast to focus and indeed a handling pleasure.

Just wished the delivery was before we shot the published "Women in Medicine 
" book! :-(

cheers,
Dr. ted
