Abel,

This link should be a sticky. When the Lens Question A Day comes up, we can point folks to this thread.

Not a bad newbie article. However once you get past the basics and move into pro glass, there are a few more niggles to be concerned with.

I concur with the sticky. It's a well written article.

This video should shed some light on why lenses cost so much.
