This Website Will Tell You What Lens To Buy From Your Photo Choices : https://www.whatthelens.com

 

If you're wondering what lens you should buy next or know what you want but you just want to be 100% sure it's the right lens for you, there's a website tool out there that can help you.

whatthelens.com will show you several photos and all you have to do is click on the ones you like for the website to reveal what lens you should purchase. There's also a dropdown which features various camera manufacturer's names for you to select from so you can choose your favourite brand and there are also genre categories should you want to narrow down the types of images you see from the start. 

Once you've selected 20 images, the website will show you a box with its recommendations in which includes a camera type as well as a couple of lens choices

The avid photographers in the ePz office tried it out and the results were pretty good, showing focal lengths they would usually gravitate towards. Have a go yourself and let us know in the comments below how well the tool does. 

There's also a tool on another website that can tell you how an image was edited in Lightroom, should you find a photo that leaves you wondering 'How did they do that?'

I gave it a try just out of interest and it recommended a lens that I have already got !

Nothing even approaching. It can only recommend based on the photos it shows. The biggest zoom it offered was 105mm whereas I regularly use 500mm.
The Panasonic recommendation was even worse as it came up with 20mm. All the photos seemed to be female fashion shoots. Hard to identify a user of gear for photographing distant birds and animals from those photos.
