neeeeeeeeeek Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Do they really cost that much to make? Looking at Canon lenses, preferably ones with image stabalisation and even second hand they cost a fortune. Look for a L series lense and they are even more! They must sell quite a few so why do they cost more than the camera? I don't know much about making them so do they make 1000 and only 1 is good enough to sell ? Anyone know??

Try having a look at this Canon Museum site, you might get an idea of the precision and engineering involved in the design and manufacture of their lenses P.S. Many thanks to Tess667 who showed me how to do the blue linky things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
