I say lens.....unless....of course it's lenses ;)
 
or you could go to the archives of the discussion section... there was recently a big HEATED discussion on that topic.
 
This is like asking
Canon, or Nikon...

Depends on the person, and yet people can get riled up by it... :lol:
 
I think its more like saying Cannon or Canon. Or Nikon or Nykon, either way, one of them is wrong. :D

LENS!
 
Meh, you say toMAYtoes, I say toMAHtoes.

This is not a Canon vs Nikon question, its BASIC ENGLISH GRAMMAR.

lens. lenses. simple as that.
 
If only it we're that easy :)

Here is one for ya, go to the SEARCH function of this forum, type in the word "LENSE"...hehe right?
Ha, it cracks me up that you're up in arms about grammar and spelled were as a "we" and "are" combo.:lmao:

Why do people always spell lens wrong? | Photo Answers

heehehe lol. seems to be a topic widely discussed..
I've actually seen "lense" in several dictionaries. This is an international forum, not everyone here speaks English as their first language and is a laid back place.. kinda like talking over beers at a bar.

Me... I'm one of those dumb guys that never picked up a second language... PLUS.. my mastery of my one and only primary language, English, is far from perfect. As such, I will never pick on anyone's grammer whatsoever.
