Hey there! Great question! The plural form of "lens" is "lenses".

Think of a camera with multiple lenses. Each of those lenses is its own individual entity, but collectively they are referred to as "lenses". Similar to how a group of geese are referred to as "geese" even though they are individual birds.

So, if you're referring to more than one lens, you will use the word "lenses". For example, "I need to clean all of my camera lenses before my next photo shoot."

I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
