I'll have to say the 50/1.8

There are some pictures that I took with this lens that everytime I see it, I was sooo glad I got it.

The 135L until I got the 35L. All my lenses but the 28-135 IS have given me a happy excitement with their IQ but if I only had 1 lens, the 35L would be my keeper.

I'd have to say my 18-55 has given me outstanding shots. But my favorite for automotive would have to be te 85mm F/1.8

My 50 f/1.4 lives on the camera and has been the most useful. I got a ton of use out of the 10-22 while in NYC though - more than I thought I would. Still, the 50 is the great default lens.

Most disappointed in the Macro lens simply because I'm lacking a decent tripod or macro flash (or bracket). I've gotten some good shots with it but the cheap tripod I use just doesn't work with all the weight. I don't get very good results using it hand held either, given the small apertures required to get decent shots. The MT-24EX is next on my list, though it'll be awhile before I get it.

My 70-200. That extra reach has given me some of my best portraits. :)

It's a toss up between the 70-200 f/4L and the 200L.
