    Want to buy a telephoto lens?

    B&H actually has this lens in their store - unless it was sold.



    Check out the article:

    $99,000 Canon 1200mm f/5.6L EF USM Super Telephoto Lens

    I already bought two - one for my winter ski chalet in the Alps and one for my summer beach house in Hawaii.

    Well, I don't know why you bought two. If you just buy one, attach it to your E-P3 - then set it up at your summer beach house in Hawaii - next, focus on a subject in the Alps - and push the shutter button!

    Re: Want to buy a telephoto lens?

    I was hoping to get one of those for my street photography. I need something inconspicuous and I think this would do just the trick.


    On a more serious note, holy moly! I love how amazingly disproportionate it is to the camera. Also wonder if he has a teleconverter on there. :P

    Oh the lenses we could buy for that much $..

    I wonder how on earth you focus this thing?

    Also wonder which Canon camera was "attached to it."
