Is the lens of a SLR camera more expensive than a camera?

Yes, because the lens is more durable than the fuselage.

SLR cameras have grades, and so do lenses.

The price of SLR body ranges from more than 3 thousand to more than 50 thousand, and the price of SLR lens ranges from several hundred yuan to tens of thousands of yuan. For example, the body of Nikon D3 100 is 3200 yuan, the lens of 18-55 mm is only a few hundred yuan, and the lens of18-/0/05 mm is more than 600 yuan. Nikon D3X has a body of more than 50,000, but Nikon's most expensive zoom lens is less than 50,000, and the most expensive fixed-focus lens is more than 60,000, but most of Nikon's Phnom Penh lenses are around 1 10,000 to 20,000.

Generally speaking, lenses are more expensive than cameras, because cameras are unlikely to be equipped with only one lens, and ordinary players generally have to be equipped with two or three lenses. Enthusiasts and professional photographers have many lenses, so lenses are more expensive than cameras.
