The last few years has seen an explosion in the availability of big-chip digital cameras, but I won’t surprise anyone by saying that this ostensibly welcome development has not resulted in a similar increase in the availability of quality lenses. From dedicated digital cinema devices such as Canon’s C series and single-digit Sony F cameras, right down to DSLRs with APS sized chips, the need to land a reasonable image on a sensor that is, at least very broadly, the same size as a 35mm film frame has never been more important. As I’ve written for this site before, this has led to huge increases in price for even rather everyday lenses.
