Just commenced photography as a hobby - and it is expensive! I was surprised to find that lenses were often as much or more than the camera body, and that even second hand they don't seem to get much cheaper. For popular lenses I simply cannot find them second hand.
Does anyone have any recommendations for how/where to get new lenses, or second-hand in good condition, for good prices?
In my case I am looking Fujifilm. A few lenses I am interested in, but the 23mm F2 was what I was considering as my first prime.
A cheap(er) way I found was to buy a package deal that someone is selling, eg a number of lenses, body etc. You keep the bits you want, and sell the bits you don't. I've got a number of "free" lenses doing this.
