How can I know which camera has the good lense?

January 8th, 2010 | by camera |
featherette asked:


Now-a-days hundreds of digital cameras are available in the market at very affordable price. Their performance and results surely depend on the lenses that have been used in the cameras. How can I know which camera has the reasonably good lense? What shall I really look for when I purchase a reasonably priced digital camera? Is their any lense identification? Thanks in advance.

    without being able to go shopping with you it can be difficult to tell you what is a good camera and which is not.. but here’s two points of advice

    1. the price of the camera is generally going to determine its quality, and the quality of the lens.. and if you are looking for a good one, id say to expect to spend at least $200

    2. and if youre buying a digital, you dont need anything more than one that is capable of 5 megapixels.. that is all the human eye can differentiate.. anything more is just marketing and unnecessary

    use consumer reviews…….you cant possibly test every model out there, in the end you have to rely on someone.

    Get a Leica – they have some great new digital cameras, for a reasonable price, with the best lenses and very good bodies, too

    You just have to read some reviews. Look at sample images. There are a couple of things to really check for. One is called “fringing” and it shows up as a purple haze surrouding an object in a high contrast image. This is a bad thing. Another is plain old distortion. You can see this at either telephoto or wide angle focal lengths. If you don’t notice any in the sample images, it is not bad enought to bother YOU. Either of these faults is less and less of a problem with the better lenses.

    Here are some popular review sites:

    Image quality is, of course, a subjective topic — one person’s hideous noise might be another’s beautiful texture. Nevertheless, with a little bit of attention, you can identify problems that might vex you later. Plus, identifying these problems now can help in your image-editing efforts when you begin shooting with the camera.

    Yes, I’ll go along with Frlix on this one. Leica were the first people to produce a 35mm camera, I believe, and their lenses have always been excellent.

    If the lens says “Canon”, “Leica” or “Nikkor” on its front, chances are they are exceptional lenses.

    This is not to say that there are not other lenses on some of the point and shoot cameras that will do a good job. They may indeed. The three listed above are just three of the best.

    Canon and Nikon makes good lenses. Kodak has most of their made by Schnieder, although the Schneider designs are possibly better than the Kodak designs.

    Sonys use Ziess Tessars on their higher end cameras.
