If you're after something specific you can search. | |

There are probably a hundred tags just accounting for all the variety of different camera models from the major manufacturers. Let alone all the variations of lens models numbers dating back...decades. I think brand and item names are ok, but model numbers are extremely fine grained. A combination of search and tag can take care of the necessary specificity. | |
