Even though the alternatives are cheaper, you're often still looking at $1000+, so buying the wrong lens can be an expensive mistake to make. I find the reviews invaluable, and I try to reciprocate by writing reviews myself of the equipment that I buy.

I know what you mean. I use a Canon DSLR and Lenses. And you can save a lot of money buying alternative lens, or waste the same amount. I take a lot of macro photos of jewelry and I have learned that you do not save money buying cheaper macro lens.
