Weird photos? I wanna see.
My favourite is my Sony 200-600mm because I’m a birder. Has elevated my game so much.

what do you reckon about spotting-scopes with camera-mounts?
i can't quite figure out why "camera" lenses suitable for wildlife are so much more expensive than spotting scopes.
i use my astronomical telescope with my full-frame digital camera. it is a 450mm f/5 prime lens, but it was a fraction of the price of any similar "camera" lens, even including the substantial tripod (which cost about as much as the tube). it actually can focus on things not too far away. no good for indoor use, sure, but fine in a park.
what's the advantage?
the Sony Zeiss 55mm f/1.8, (that one with the concave front element), is my one desert-island lens, for sure. Me developing my own style went hand-in-hand with getting to know it better for a few years.
I used to love using "weird" and specialist lenses, but it's so versatile, it killed my trying all kinds of cheap/vintage glass- since getting the Zeiss, everything else just stays in the bag.
