Opinion: lenses are the stars of the show

If you’ve spent any time in the comments sections of articles about cameras, you’ve probably come across the idea that which camera body you choose barely matters: the lenses are the most important thing to consider. While this can read as people being dismissive of new tech, or even as sour grapes from people who don’t want to admit that something new is, in fact, better than what they have, I have to begrudgingly admit that the killjoys have a point. They’re correct when they say that you’re likely to keep your lenses longer than any particular body.
