The feeling of pro glass
Oh, yes! These huge 17-55mm and 70-200mm f2.8 lenses do feel great in the hands, and the do take some awful nice pictures

Nikon 85mm f1.8 D
A great and affordable short telephoto potrait lens with excellent image quality for the price. I bought one used, and I love it.

Nikon 18-200mm f3.5-5.6 VR
An amazing set of specifications for a small lens. Wide zoom range, inner focussing and vibration reduction. But the trees do not grow into the sky...

Minolta 75-300mm f4.5-5.6
This is a standard medium zoom lens in the not-too-bright end

Bokeh
Bokeh is a thing I have always known, but only in the recent years have been able to put words on.

Minolta 70-210 f4
A great telezoom. Known as the "beercan"

Minolta 100mm f2
The best telephoto lens I have ever owned.

Tokina AT-X 100-300mm f4
Built like a tank and with a very superior image quality
