Obviously 200f2. I owned the VR I and haven't shot a single time.
I use 28 1.4 E and 58 1.4G frequently, had 105 1.4 E but sold it because I don't like it as much as 85 1.2 Z.

I would LOVE to have the 58/0.95 Noct. For what I shoot, it would be a very rarely used lens, I'd almost never carry it due to size and weight, and in no way could I ever justify the cost, but my lord, it would be amazing to own.

I miss my 100-400. It wasn’t as good as my 500PF for wildlife, I rarely needed it for anything else, and my 28-400 does a good job as a substitute. But it was a very nice lens.

Good or bad, I have had the chance to own at some points all the Z lenses I wished to own.
Among those I decided to let go of due to low usage and/or the need to reallocate cash (call me a traditionalist but credit is an absolute no go for me for anything but a house) the Noct is clearly the one I regret selling the most. Pure optical magic. However the 50mm f1.2 S is nearly as wonderful while being much more practical so that money will go to a Z9II or to a next gen direct attached Raid unit I guess.

Mostly tele lenses that I don’t need except for taking pics of my friend‘s dogs.. I’d love to test the 400mm f2.8 TC and the 200mm f2 some day.
AF-D 180mm f2.8 to use on film.
Also the 58mm f0.95 Noct would be fun to play with. More realistically I could see myself getting the Voigtländer 50mm f1 at some point.
Only ever shot with the 24-70mm f2.8S once, but it made me want one ever since. Now that the v2 is out used prices are starting to look really good too..

I have an FM3A, and I wanted the 45mm 2.8 P for the longest time, even though I knew it wasn't a very good lens. I couldn't get over how good it looked on the camera, though, so when I finally found one complete with hood and filter for a little over $300, I jumped at it. Everyone was right, it's not great. Still pretty, though!
I have to make do with my 58 1.4
