Now i have been looking lately at a few different options as i was about to buy either a DSLR or some sort of mirrorless set up but i have been really surprised at the prices of some of the mirrorless gear and i am swaying back toward a dslr.
One example is the Olympus 25mm f1.8 lens which is selling on here second hand for roughly £270.
I think this is very expensive for essentially a 50mm f1.8 lens unless i'm missing something. The 45mm f1.8 has fantastic reviews and sells regularly for £150 so what's the deal with this thing?
I think there are certainly some bargains to be had body wise with an OMD-EM5 selling over at AV Forums for £280 but new bodies are released so often the value just tumbles.
I was just wondering if others think some of these mirrorless lenses are way overpriced. I can't think of a Canon lens where i've thought it was shockingly overpriced and i don't mean the hugh zoom lenses that cost thousands as i've no knowledge of them.
