I wanted to try and get a picture in my head of how long these lenses will be based off the patents. I've subtracted the 2cm of mount to sensor distance to get a physical lens length as the patents are typically length to the sensor itself.
Adjusted for length to mount and not sensor:
600/11 DO: 314.97mm or 12.4"
800/11 DO: 369.25mm or 14.5"
A few comparison lengths:
Sony 200-600: 12.5"
Nikon 500PF: 9.33"
Canon 400 f.2.8 III: 13.5"
Canon 400DOII: 9.16"
Canon 600III: 17.64"
Canon 800L: 18.15"
Conclusion: Long, skinny lenses....
Oh...and the lens they should have made: 600 f/8 DO: 11.78"
