sorry another one http://gizmodo.com …00mm-ultra-telephoto-lens

WTF???

I've used the 1200mm one twice. Or played with it rather. Once at a trade show and once at Donnington race circuit where some dude was filming on an XL2 Canon camcorder at a trackday I was at with one os these strapped to the front with the EF adapter. It's huge, and predictably, a little slow on focusing.

What macros of girls at a beach

I would love to see these lenses... what a behemoth!!!(the second link) I thought the 1200mm was huge :P

From memory I'd have said the 1200mm was about 6ft long and had a front element something like 45cm across... The tripod foot is so big the Canon stand at the trade show had it mounted on one of those twin-arm video tripod heads such as you'd use for small studio video cameras.

wow i cant believe it, im actually getting through all this work ive got piled up here
i must be missing something, some huge job ive completely forgotten
