Yes
I was walking around my local country park today and bumped into a wildlife photographer with the biggest lens i have ever seen.
He was a friendly chap and let me have a look through his Canon EOS-1D to show me a buzzard he was shooting.
I could not see the buzzard with a naked eye and when i enquired about the lens the gentleman said it was 1000mm.

Just out of curiosity i tried to look the lens up tonight but can't seem to find a Canon 1000mm L listed anywhere :shrug:
It was in the 'L' colours and looked like the Canon EF 800mm f_5.6 L IS USM, only bigger.

Sorry i should have taken a photo but does anybody know what this lens could be?
 
Poss the 500L with a 2x Convertor on.

14 grand for a lens? Nuts. The day I have 14 grand to spend on a lens, I'm going to spend it on coke and hookers instead.

Whats a hooker?
 
The 800mm never goes for £14k, its normally around the £9k mark, and at that price its such a bargain you might as well get two!
 
So does a hooker light a fire with coke to get warm??

But when they leave, they always leave something behind.

And you really wont like the thing they left.

And the hooker will give you an STD.
 
I prefer back row forwards myself ..... is that an oximoron?
