1700mm Zeiss lens

[noclip]

The 1200mm Canon EF comes with its own tripod, this lens probably includes a flatbed truck.

It's got an LCD just for the lens and weights almost 600 pounds. Considering that he's bought two Canon 1200s, I'll bet Jim has an order in for one of these too.

Pretty darn big... as you'll note from the attached camera, it's a medium format lens. I saw this photo on another site some time ago, maybe early this year? I had the impression that it was a custom design job for a single customer.

What the...!?

What would you use that for!? Snapping shots of some Martian girl's breasts?

Yes, for the prince of some African or Middle Eastern country perhaps?

I just hope the RED Hubble mount will be ready by the time my serial number ships!

What about the TMT mount? 450,000mm focal length. Could you imagine making a movie about the international space station, shooting on site, with out ever having to go into space?

Once upon a time, there was a thread about supersize lenses.

Ahahahahah!

That's great. LOL

 

[Radoslav Karapetkov]

Those lenses are really phat.

 

[Gavin Greenwalt]

Maybe they hooked one of those up without any rails to test the new PL mount. Jarred said he couldn't break it...

 

[Tom Lowe]

Hahahaha.

Just a hype.

Every lens maker needs a story.

Anyway you can't owe or buy this monster.
