Xeryon Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I understand how camera gear can get pricey, but I entirely fail to grasp how a portable lens that is that expensive would ever have a use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris(pa) Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Wow...that thing is like a cannon. Ka-Boom!!! Any sample photos around the net? From other sites Remember that the XL1 EOS adapter multiplies the focal length of any EOS lens by a factor of 7.2, so this 1200mm lens had an effective 35mm equivalent focal length in the neighborhood of 8640mm, which isn't a lens anymore, but a telescope. http://www.pbase.com/cameras/canon/ef_1200_56u Sports Illustrated owns two of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris(pa) Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 The 2000mm is a mirror lens though Canon makes a 5200mm mirror lens I actually have a 500mm f/8 mirror lens for my Minolta SRT101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
