Take your annual salary, multiply by 12, then take that to the power of 10 that times your state tax rate, then multiply the total by Pi. That should be a start. ;)

I think this is a good site, but not just for lens only.
dpreview.com

the lenses every Canon owner MUST have..
17-40L f4 $680
24-70L f2.8 $1150
50mm f1.4 $315
100mm f2.8 macro $470
70-200L f2.8 IS $1700
1.4 extender $275
this is the absolute MUST HAVE
the "optional" MUST HAVE
85mm L f1.2 $2100
300mm L f2.8 $3900
400mm L f2.8 IS $6600
600mm L f4 IS $7200
that makes it total of $4590 for the MUST HAVE and $19800 for the optional lenses.
you have to save $24390 for lenses... better sell your camera ;)

DanSig's list is good, but I'd say that you can substitute the Tamron 28-75 f2.8 for the Canon 24-70, and save yourself a whopping $800. Although out of $24400, I'm not sure it makes that much of a difference :-P

| Slrgear.com is pretty good. They have have a blur index for their reviews. Not too many lenses reviewed yet as they are just getting started. Also Fred Miranda is a good source. |
