Looks good for safari, maybe a bit small for birding though

Get a high MP camera and slap a 2x extender on that bad boy and you should be able to get some decent photos.

And still someone using this photographs bigfoot super grainy.

All you can see is the foot

But with that lense, it is a really big foot.

ACKTCHULLY if it was 4000mm @ f/0.3 the lens would have a diameter over 12 meters. This looks to be about f/4.0

There was a Zeiss lens back in the 1980's that had a special offer. If you bought one you got a free Volkswagen Fox.

Price: $69,000.00

Nice.

But, for real though. Is this a because they could thing, or is there actually a use for this big of a lens? (I mean, it says Sony, so I assume it’s not telescope optics)

let's see... If I mortgage my house, sell the car, my spare kidney and possibly a leg... I might be able to afford the Lens cap.
