[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 296358, member: 13090"] Manufacturers list the groups and elements because that information is part of the standard technical specification for a camera lens. It also gives fanboys, nitpickers and technophile-photographers something to sink their teeth into and argue about. The number of groups and/or elements, by itself, has no bearing on the overall quality of the lens, or the image quality the lens will produce, so it should not be a deciding factor in which lens you should buy.
