EF 5000 f2/8 II Macro IS

Pretty funny!! Just out of curiosity....theoretically, how big (length and diameter) would that be?

Well I figure diameter at about 6 feet, length maybe 16 feet? Might be a bit of chore to hand hold, hope it includes IS.

Makes the Sigma 200-500 f2.8 look like a walk around lens!!

Yeah really, what was I thinking? ... I've been sick for the past few days with flu, so it must have been the flu that is affecting my head ... but if it is 16 feet I would need to buy a really big van to use it as a mobile lens case to protect the 5000 f/2.8 L IS Macro lens. ;D .... oh well, as they say, if wishes were horses, beggars would fly. ;D

How about the Canon EF 1600mm f/2.8L II IS lens. 8)

Why not, but I would need Santa Claus to bring it to me for Christmas

 

[Nyc2dc]

Simple

14mm 2.8L II
35mm 1.4L II
135mm 2.0L II

24-70mm 2.8L II
70-200mm 2.8L IS II
200-400mm 4.0L IS

It's easy to dream

Soooo........if I think I understand what you're saying then basically there will be an announcement at Photokina of a 46mp 4.3fps, ISO 25-12800 camera with DR equal to the Nikon 800 and a new 50mm f1.0 lens.

Phew! Why didn't you just say that then?!?

 

[Axilrod]

This is kind of a foolish thread, I mean wouldn't everyone just want one of everything? Hell if money doesn't matter why wouldn't you get a 1200mm f/5.6 even if you knew you'd never use it?

 

[Viggo]

My wishlist, that is possible, is nearly there:

What I own:

1d X
TS-17mm
24 f1,4 II
35 f1,4
50 L
85L II
135 L

3x 580 II (Odin Controlled) with two 60x60cm boxes, 1 octa 70cm and 1 60x90cm box. Plus the new Godox battery packs (fantastic product)

What I am planning on doing to the current gear:

Sell the 17 and the 135 and buy back the 300 f2,8 IS. And replace the 35 with the mk2 when it arrives.

What I want, but isn't really a reality, keep the 135 and get the 300 L II.

1. First of All I need a Hasselblad X5 (X1) film scanner (for my Gaoersi 617 and Fuji TX-1). I shoot film, and love it. Well, at least Nikon Coolscan 8000. Canon doesn't make film scanners, and that really bad.
2. Sigma 30/1.4, Samyang 24/1.4 for my 60D I think I''ll get one of this soon.
3. Black Magic cinema camera for nature videography - Canon just can''t do it.

 

[Gman]

My needs are very simple
a PS G14, with a 24 to 240mm ƒ2 to ƒ4 zoom with an 18Mp 2/3rds CMOS backlit sensor in the same size or smaller body than the present G12!
now that's no asking too much is it

 

[KurtStevens]

Leica m9-p along with the 50 .95 as well as the 35 1.4.

Next on the list would be the 85 1.2 and another 5d3 would be grand.

There are more that I want but this would be ideal.

 

[CharlieB]

Oh M9 or M10 definitely.

I owned a 50/.095 for a few years. I was converted to M by Marty Forscher.

The lens is soft at .095, better at 2.0 and ok, but not great by 5.6

It uses the outer bayonet on Canon RF cameras. No such thing on Leica M's.
I had one, it fit and focused on the M3 I had at the time. It brought up the right frame.

It also blocked the viewfinder... who major bigtime!

I shot jazz ensembles, with 2475 recording, wide open... with that lens in the late 70's and early 80's.

 

[CharlieB]

I've got what I think it ok.

For Hasselblad:
500c/m
553el/x
SWC 38mm
60mm
80mm
2x Mutar
250mm
and 350mm

For Leica:
M4-2
M4-p
M6ttl
28 summicron asph
35 summicron asph
50 summicron
90 summicron apo asph

and for Canon
two EOS-5's
5dmkII
20/2.8
28/1.8
28/2.8
50/1.4
100/2.8 macro usm
300/4.0
1.4x

I think soon, as soon as my clutch is better... a 16-35/2.8 USM

And pie in the sky (after an M9) a 300/2.8
