Without a doubt, the 35 Summicron ASPH.  The tonal qualities of this lens
are remarkable, and images from it seem to have a "massive" quality - wen
things are right I get a sense of the objects I photograph, be they people
or things, existing as real objects in real space.  I've never experienced
that with any other lens, though I think the new 90 APO may have it as well.
All that and it's sooo good wide open...
