    Most often? And why?

    Right now mine is a Nikon 35-80mm f/4-5.6D... but I just bought a Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 and that should be arriving today! I'm assuming that'll be on my camera most for a general "everyday" type of lens...

    "It depends."
    Depends on where I am, what I doing etc.

    But hey, I'm pretty new to all this, and only have three lenses (wide, telephoto and a prime) so it's not exactly like I'm too spoilt for choice. I do like the nifty fifty a lot though...

    I (we, my wife is learning to shoot also now) also only have 3 lenses but on two camera's.
    One has a Canon 24 - 70mm 2.8L and the other has a Canon 100-400mm 4.5L

    We also have an EF 50mm 1.8 Prime, so cheap yet so effective.

    In my hands I guess the 100-400 gets more of a work out usually but the 24-70 gets plenty of attention. The 50mm a bit more rarely. I take all sort of shots so the lenses varies.

    This weekend I'm shooting an all night Mountain Bike event on the Gold Coast so the 50mm and the 24-70 will feature mostly until the sun is out enough in the closing stages of the race where I might use the 100-400.

    i just got my d80 this past summer, and upgraded the kit lens to the nikkor 18-200mm 1:3.5-5.6. so thats always on my cam as its my only option at this point. im hoping to get my hands on the 50mm 1.4 or 1.8 right away...

    Well, on one d90 I have the kit lens. I actually really like it. On another, I have a 50mm 1.4D and will have a 50mm 1.4G on the other one as soon as it gets off of backorder.
