Readers’ Choice: Best prime lens of 2023
 |
Prime lenses aren’t what they used to be. Today’s lenses are bigger and more costly than their SLR-era ancestors, and advanced aspheric optics and exotic lens elements allow for designs that would have been impossible in the past. This year’s lenses included updates of camera bag staple fifty one-fours, along with a healthy collection of wide-angle, telephoto, and even a couple of tilt-shift lenses.
Our editorial team has had its say already, in our 2023 DPReview Awards, but which of this year’s new prime lenses was your favorite? This is your chance to let us and the industry know. If you think we missed something, please leave a comment to let us know.
Polls are now open, see below.
Voting takes place in three categories (cameras, prime and zoom lenses), running through December 31.
Once the vote has closed, we’ll run a fourth and final poll drawn from the winners of the first three to determine the Readers’ Choice Product of the Year. Look out for that poll early in 2024.
Voting is easy – pick your top 3 products by dragging and dropping to rank them in order of priority.
Please note that for the best experience, we recommend voting on our desktop site.
Poll Rules:
This poll is meant to be a bit of fun. It’s not sponsored, promoted, or paid for in any way, and DPReview doesn’t care how you vote. Our readers’ polls are run on the basis of trust. As such, we ask that you only vote once, from a single account.
