Original Canon and Nikon lenses vs third-party lenses: myths and facts
The
photographers were not affected by the prices or models from Canon or Nikon DSLR
camera, will argue that they are more concerned to invest their money on the
lens, instead of prioritizing the camera body. Once they are confident with the
choice of a DSLR camera, photography enthusiast then began to hunt an
additional lens, instead of just relying on the default kit lens. They are
trying to buy original Canon or Nikon lenses. They may not think to buy a
third-party lens camera manufactured by Tamron, Sigma, Rokinon, Tokina or other brands.
There
is also a growing myth that if you use the original lens, then you will get brilliant
and sharp picture, even guaranteed to be accurate. Also believed that the
original lens is much more expensive than lenses manufactured by third party
companies such as Rokinon, Sigma, Samyang, Sigma, Tokina or Carl Zeiss lenses, and
more.
It turns out this myth is not always true, either on the accuracy and
sharpness or brilliance of photographs that can be produced by a third-party
lenses. If the disputed from the aspect of price, it turns out the original
Canon or Nikon lenses could be cheaper than lenses made by Sigma or Tamron.

Tamron or Sigma has a long experience to make a good lens for Canon and
Nikon DSLR. There are a lot of their production lenses that have better
features than the original lens Nikon or Canon, for example, an image
stabilizer technology, which is not found on certain types of lenses in Canon
and Nikon lenses. Perhaps this is what makes third-party lens becomes more
expensive for the same type than the original lens Canon or Nikon. However, you
will enjoy the image stabilization, so that you believe yourself to shoot at
certain conditions.

When you choose a superzoom lens or telephoto lens, it turns out you can
get a longer zoom range on a third-party lens, even more affordable price.
You
can get this information from the online shops specialized in selling lenses
and cameras. So that you are more confident, you need to look at the official
website of Sigma, Tamron or Tokina, so you get more accurate information. Who
knew you could find another lens with attractive offers such as a macro lens,
wide angle lens or fixed lens.
Therefore, you need to see the catalog or information on the Internet,
before you decide to buy a new lens for your DSLR camera. If you insist on
buying original lens for Canon or Nikon camera, then you can buy a used lens.
You can get a used lens in stores trusted in your town, if you have not got the
guts to buy online. There is a community of photographers who are willing to

Another way to get the original lens is to trade with your own lens. You
