Everyone knows the best photographers use Nikon.


Canon exists to keep the rif-raf away from the good cameras.

I need a photographer to chime in on this question:

Is a lens that big really necessary?

Didn't think so. :dunno: I don't know shit about photography so I wouldn't even begin to know when to use something of that magnitude.

There's tons of uses for a 1200mm lens, especially video! Sports Illustrated owns a pair of the Canon 1200mm f/5.6's: specifically used the Olympics like bob-sled and skiing events. They're also used to get killer surfing shots that you'd otherwise have to get from a jet-ski...
