Maybe we can strap it to a horse or a camel, mobile tripod.
This monster lens was built in 1968...

And imagine, with the 50D (1.6x), and add another 2.0x teleconvertor, this can become a 16,640mm f28 lens. Can shoot the moon landing vehicle on the moon already...
1) can it be shot handheld?
2) does it come with IS?
3) anyone has a camera bag recommendation?
4) can use for group shots? how about landscapes?
5) will the pop-up flash work with this?
6) i want some polarizers with it...where got sell?
7) Does the shop even deliver it to my place ??
8) Could it be mounted to my TANK ??
9) Got life time interest free installment or not ??
10)Which dry box should I buy to keep this ?
11)I think my copy is back-focus!!
12) Duh! At this price not even a white lens?
13) Where can find a dry cabinet to store this?
14) I need a ULM for the focus (Ultra Light Motor)
15) Got the red ring (L) version for this?
16) How many lens element inside U think?
17) Comes with Hood or need to buy seperately?
18) Someone once told me, with prime lens, you zoom with your legs. This one must zoom with a palletjack liao.
19) If need servicing, dono whether can fit into the passenger lift at the CSC leh...
20) Wonder if Lenspen will come up with a lensmop for this
21) You need to buy a FD mount ring adaptor to fit into EOS system
22) Need to built a dust-free, mini astro-telescopic station to house this giant
hahaha for the serious gym rats only.
i would love to hear the number of hearts shatter when the lifter drops the 'weights' on the floor.23) Olympic official: Do you think we can use this lens for the weight lifting event?
1200 is biggest EF lens i believe..
yeah. i know. just comparing lens to lens.
i can imagine anyone in CS buying this lens... u can stay at home for the model shoot, so long as ur house got a clear line-of-sight to the shooting area. :bsmilie:
hmm... wonder if I can find a porter strong enough for my Himalaya trip.
yea you could take a group shot with this. A group shot of a person's nostril hair. You need to focus by getting your children to stand on the focusing ring (if any) and just start running.
either that, or your lens will become the playground for the children. A small toddler might actually be able to make it into the hood. >_<dey..by the time it focuses, your children cannot hear you say STOP RUNNING liaoz..:bsmilie:
think cameo gaffering it will cost alot of tape! but its STEALTHy-ier.....?![]()
I wonder how it's 'faster' 5200mm f/2.8 will look like. :bsmilie:
