Look how small the camera is! You'd need a trailer just to haul it around and a bunch or sherpas to set it up for you.

So if I buy this lens then I can take group photo of people in greenland? (you can see greenland from Iceland) :)
This could be a huge business for me :) now I only need a good flash that can light up this ditance ;)

i bet the only reason you can't shoot further than what it says is because the world curves too much

I think this takes the "mine's bigger than yours" mantra a bit too far... I mean, where would you stick it?!? ;-)

Looks like a nice prime. I bet it is an L because of the white body... Where is the red stripe though???
I'm just guessing here Joey, but did you take that picture by reverse mounting a 50mm lens to the end? or did you just handhold it with a paper towel tube extender? Nice trick on a fine lens.
I read about this on DPReview and the guy who tested it said that he pointed it at the moon and saw not only the flag placed there by Neil Armstrong, he also saw the place where Neil unzipped his space suit and wrote his name in the sand....

I think whoever made that is seriously compensating for something!
