    Everyone knows the best photographers use Nikon.


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

    At least it comes with free shipping.

    I need a photographer to chime in on this question:

    Is a lens that big really necessary?

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

    Couldn't be more wrong. 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...
