  1. How do you find the perfect dslr lens? When shopping around for the right dslr lens, there are a few factors you need to consider. The most obvious being cost and compatibility; if you can't afford the lens or if it is not compatible with your dslr camera, there's really no point to purchasing a lens, no matter how incredible it is.
