Canon EF 1200mm f/5.6L USM
Salut,
Je suis tombé chez moi sur un vieux catalogue Canon, dans lequel figure l'EF 1200mm f/5.6 L USM, qui peut être couplé avec les mutliplicateurs pour devenir un 1700mm (f/8) ou même un 2400mm (f/11).
Je me demandais qui utilisait un tel monste (17 kg). En surfant un peu, j'ai trouvé ça :
The Canon EF 1200mm f/5.6L lens is a professional EF Lens made by Canon that was introduced in 1993, six years after the launch of EOS cameras, and discontinued in 2005. The initial price for this lens was US$89,579. It weighs more than 36 pounds (16 kg), comes with its own heavy-duty tripod and case, and was built only by request. The focal length can be increased to 1700 mm f/8 or 2400 mm f/11 using the Canon EF Extenders 1.4× and 2× respectively. Sports Illustrated magazine owns two of them, as does Canon Professional Service and James Jannard, the billionaire founder of Oakley.
There are believed to be around a dozen of the EF 1200 mm lenses in existence.
Pour ceux qui aime l'animalier… et la muscu ! :)
A+
