The ULTIMATE Canon lens

[dr croubie]

pfft.

It already comes with lens and sensor together, not even interchangeable lenses.

Sounds like a cheap crappy Point'n'Shoot to me.

 

[lol]

Can you hand hold this?

It looks like it has no weather sealing... kind of a deal breaker to me... I'll wait to see what TDP iso12223 chart throws up before i add it to my kit.

You can crop 20x and still left with just over a 2mp image!

The telescope is a nice 150000 mm

Why isn't this one white? Surely it qualifies... doesn't it? Oh - wait, that's right... it's not even an L (I don't think there are any white lenses which are non-L).

I hope it's a metal mount, cause I guess a plastic mount will stress & flex a bit when I attach it to my 350D and lift this lens to my eye and shoot some photos. 8)

Quick question - why does my battery die after just 2 photos... maybe this lens's AF motor really drains the power too quickly?

I think I'll order two - one of each camera body. The one on 1DIII will give me extra 1.3x reach! Grovy

Keeping dust off that sensor array must be a b*tch

 

[CharlieB]

I'll pass, the fps are not as impressive as the 7D

 

[lholmes549]

Think I'll wait for version II...

Now I need a new bag.

 

[marceloshak]

This lens will be used to find Edward Snowden

 

[jdramirez]

we're gonna need a bigger bag.

I would like to see the lens hood for this one.

 

[wsmith96]

I'm going to need a bigger tripod.

 

[wsmith96]

I wonder which mount it uses.......

EF-vb maybe

It's an EF-S for crop bodies

 

[wsmith96]

This article is a hoax. It's actually the scope for the rebel ion cannon.

 

[beckstoy]

...I wonder if that's the kit lens...

 

[Trovador]

...the Hyper Suprime-Cam, developed by Canon in 1972, marked the end of the company's pursuit of viable lens prototypes for colonoscopy purposes...

 

[P_R]

I guess it really is a Cannon.

The Canon-made “Wide Field Corrector,” as it’s called, is placed in front of the giant sensor in order to improve the image quality of the main telescope lens.


So it is really just the worlds largest extender.
