Man and my wallet hurts just trying to buy a 400mm f/5.6 lol.

Nevermind the debates about how to carry the 500mm, not to mention the 600mm, this beast will require a horse and cart, im sure!
Smart looking lens.
Didn't they do a 200mm F1.8 some time ago - what happened to that?
I have seen a close-up image of the switches and it looks as if the mfd is 6m.If the 800mm was an f4 then might I raise my eyebrows a little, as its a new development optimised for digital sensors it has a slightly different grouping/arrangement to the current super-tele crop; It would be interesting to know what the minimum focus distance is; but the longer the lens, the more wobbly air there is between you and the subject!

Haha! True. Im betting this is going to be over 8 grand (us dollars). It says the optical rateing is better than the 600mm. NICE!!! :eek!: :loveme:
The EF800mm f/5.6L IS USM, expected to deliver telephoto performance surpassing the current top-of-the-line EF600mm f/4L IS USM super telephoto lens...
Hi Tannin,
is it not possible (I don't know, hence the question) that it's simply the physics of the thing - as opposed to a poor design decision - that results in the 6m MFD?
