Zeiss 1700mm f4 T*

[Terence]

Anyone want a custom made 1700mm f4? Only 256kg... get real close to that bee eater you've always wanted to snap. Might need your lorry to double as a tripod though. On display at Photokina 2006.

More details here.

It will cost at least a million Singapore dollars or even more... :sweat: :sweat:
Maybe it's made for space photography as well.

Wonders how much would one of these monsterz be.... :think:

 

[Terence]

Well, there is arabic script and a somewhat official looking crest on its right side. I'm guessing a oil producing nation with a decent gdp would be able to afford one of these... A million plus would be my guess...

The Nikkor 1200-1700mm f/5.6-8 might be a more "affordable alternative"
