The Lens Price Database, Lens$db, has prices and physical specifications for over 400 lenses, including: all Canon EF prime lenses and EF Extenders; all Canon EF L-series zoom lenses, plus a few others; a large selection of “alternative” manual focus lenses from Carl Zeiss, Leica, Nikon, Olympus, Pentax, Voigtlander, and other brands; a variety of lenses from Sigma, Tamron and Tokina; a selection of Medium Format Mamiya 645 lenses that are more-or-less compatible with EOS cameras, and with the Mirex Tilt-Shift adapter; and, a small selection of Fujifilm XF and similar rangefinder-style lenses. The prices are mostly for used equipment in excellent to mint condition, based on eBay sales and list prices at many camera stores.
Cheers, Jim
P.S. Thanks to Roger Cicala (RCicala) and Tyler Beckman I now have prices for recent sales at LensRentals.com (LR). This is the only camera shop that has prices for actual sales, as opposed to list prices of lenses offered for sale.
Thanks Jim. I apologize if this has been asked before, but I see a number of lenses missing. Two that jump out (unless I just missed them) are the entire Zeiss ZF line and most of the Pentax M42 Takumars. Just curious as to their absence.

Well, it's based mostly on what I might want to buy and/or sell... Over the years, I've removed some lenses to make way for others. I used to track the SMC Taks back in the old days when I used Pentax cameras. In general, I prefer SMC Pentax (K-mount) lenses. One snip, right off!

Again, thanks for continuing to maintain this terrific resource.
P.S.: what's the standard bribe fee for altering the entry on a lens I want to buy or sell?
"How could you possibly expect $2500 for this lens; the Lens$db proves $150 is more than a fair price!"
