Photographers are a gullible bunch who believe that lens design flaws give "character" instead of inaccurate image reproduction.
#optics #lensdesign #photographers #cameralenses #opticallenses #photography #cameras #opticaldefects #bokeh #swirlybokeh

Photographers should stop buying camera lenses and start to make their own. Why get scammed by those overpriced new lenses when their results are not noticeably better than old lens designs that can be put together at home? Spend your money on a larger imaging sensor. Don't spend on lenses!

I don't understand why photographers spend so much money on standard lenses when a simple achromatic doublet is able to produce images that are significantly free of optical defects.
