Lens Hero
Sometimes I find myself wondering…what lens should I go for next? It can be tough to decide, since, while I know in general what general focal lengths I want based on what I want to shoot, the lenses good for those purposes might be beyond my price range. Or I might wonder what comparable Tokina, Sigma, or Tamron lenses I could get instead of a Canon.
Even if I decided that I have money to spend for a lens, finding one to get could be a hassle. I’d have to look them all up individually, at every place I know that sells lenses, if I wanted to get a good deal. Some sort of price aggregator might be nice.
Well, someone appears to have read my mind, and created exactly the site to do that. Lens Hero (http://www.lenshero.com) is a nifty site which can tell you, based on your camera, your price limit, and what type of photos you want to take, what lenses might fit your desires!
And if that weren’t enough, each page about each lens also comes with community feedback on the lens, information about the angle of view, and even a link to buy one! All of this, combined with the intuitive interface, the useful comments, and the option to even have the site itself suggest a lens makes Lens Hero a definite go-to place for finding my next DSLR lens.
