Rare 1200mm f/5.6L for sale at B&H used

Just for those interested. First time I have seen one of these for sale. Apparently only about 12 were ever made. At $120,000 used I am not surprised. http://www.bhphotovide​o.com …ephoto_1200mm_f​_5_6L.html

.............oh wow.

I knew we were due for our weekly "omg look at this 1200mm 5.6 for $120,000", soon.

$120K? What a rip-off.

But they are throwing in a free LensCoat lens cover!

Still off :P

Each person would have it for less than 1.5 hours a day (365 days * 24 hours / 6,000 people = 1.46hours or 6.08% of a day).

To all the smartasses who say 365.25 or leap year, do your own math

Math? We say Maths' in the Uk, or is it just me?

Anyway, Can I borrow it for 3minutes 54 seconds please?

I do hope that bird stays around for the next 27 years, 8 months, 3 weeks and one day, until it's my turn to borrow it again - then I guess I'll have had to upgrade many times more.

Let's not forget that we all don't live in the same room, so add in shipping, and in the end, no one will use it!

So rare, in fact that we get a new one of these threads only two to three times a week!
