p.2 #4 · Hands on video review of the Canon EF 1200 f/5.6L Lens
What would have been a good comp would have been between the 800/5.6 and the 1200/5.6
But hey the video with the 2x is impressive, I wounder if any of the wildlife TV show shooters would use it. When you see the size of some of the TV cams they have to lug about the 1200 and a 5d2 (or an upcomming 1ds4) would not look such a large and heavy prospect.
I recently had a once in a lifetime opportunity to perform a "hands on" review of the mythical Canon 1200 f/5.6L lens.
We created a video review of this lens where you will get the opportunity to see some of its unique features, take a look at some still and video as well as a video comparison with an EF500 f/4L IS as we shoot some suburban wildlife. The sample stills and video as well as the entire review were all captured using a pair of Canon 5D MarkII.
