Hmmm, big but not quite as big as my Ol Russian made MTO 1000A 1100mm f10.5 :




But mine is longer than yours, so there.


Did I just say that?

Lord help me !!!

Can someone tell me how much this "piece of glass" goes for ?


Well, it lists for hell of a lot more, but I got mine at quite a bargain ... if you can call paying the price of a used car for a lens a bargain.

Is anyone making a running $$ tally on this thread.?.. My self esteem is being helped greatly by seeing others that share my affliction. I am struck by how "perfect" most of the gear is. Does everybody wear kidskin gloves and nose cozy's when taking pictures?

Figured I'd help keep this thread alive by posting my two babies. A Zeiss 18mm f/4 AE and a Zeiss 28mm f/2.8 MM.

I think most non-professional shooters baby their gear since it is a large investment and most does not make any money shooting. I baby the stuff that is hard to replace.

most things look cleaner in photos than in real life (unless a harsh flash was used, then it can be the opposite!)

Here is one that managed to get the look of the lens fairly accurate to what it really looks like, in terms of how worn it looks. With out a flash, the lens looks much nicer than it really is.

Well Daniel, I must say, very nice!

But this is why you see all the old images of photographers in bowler hats! You take off your hat, place it over the lens, then make an ornate bow to your subject, and place the hat back over the lens. Its all about chivalry in the LF realm.
