Finally, I have an excuse to buy a truck, a huge one.

 

[candyman]

And so small..... : ......wait....and it can't do coffee? :-\ ;D

 

[unfocused]

I was thinking about pre-ordering this and then I read the rumor that Canon may also announce a 14-800 version. Should I buy this or wait for the 14-800?

You need to wait for the 11mm-800+built-in 1.4ext :

Good one Eldar.... ;D

 

[mackguyver]

Only f/2.8 - I'll pass.

 

[TeT]

Thats Great.. On pure supposition alone; how big would that lens have to be?

 

[JonAustin]

That's a pretty short box, so it must extend quite a bit when zoomed out ...

 

[tpatana]

I'll have two please.

 

[Eldar]

I think you misjudge the picture, due to its very large printet letters. The box is almost square and it comes with a complimentary (oak) pallet. On the accessories list you'll find mule, sherpa and snowmobile as alternative transportation aids ...

 

[JimKarczewski]

I found this photo with Shaq (7'1") standing next to the box... I might need a bigger Tripod.

 

[moushu]

That is absolutely ridiculous!
Canon, what about consulting us customers?
I've looked through all my pictures and realised that 99% of them are taken at focal lengths between 45 and 50mm.
So give me what I want, a 45-50mm zoom - and if you could do it for less than 2 grand, I'll preorder now.

by the way.

 

[Mr Bean]

Meh, only 16mm, I'd buy it if it was 15mm.....another disappointment from Canon

 

[KeithBreazeal]

The second generation will have the flip-in 2X converter, so I'll hold out.

 

[wsmith96]

I guess canon has really perfected DO for this size

 

[wsmith96]

Wonder when it will be available and what they will charge for it ...

One Miiiiiiiiillion Dollars
