Is there a Sigma or Tamron version? Does it have USM on the bellows? I like the minimum object distance of 120 meters.

Hey, I just checked. At $55K, this lens is only half the price of the 1200mm f5.6

Canon 5200mm f/14 lens « Williamo's Blog.

There is one for sale now. But Dude, it is an even $250,000.00 not 55K.

Ah OK ... this site said $55K ...


I don't know what the 1200 cost new ... BH had one for $100K for a while ...

Anyway, I think I'll order my Nifty-5200 .... I wonder if it is plastic feeling ... I'm googling large camera bags as we speak ...

I forgot to mention the lens is in China and I do not remember what the shipping is, but I don't think that Brown is going to deliver this one. Keep in mind I think that there were only 5 or 6 ever made.

Hell, forget it. I don't see that it's "L" glass. What's the point?

It is the supreme example of L glass. Look at the color of the lens body?

That thing on the back is a camera. The ring is too small to be seen on this lens.
