    First time I saw this lens was when a BBC crew was filming a nature show in my local stomping grounds. They had it on every time I ran into them over a month long period. I remember looking the lens price up when I got home and it was about $70,000 USD. Then I added up the price of the lens, the RED camera , their tripod system and all the accessories. Had to be at least $125,000 - $150,000 setup they had on various sticks and shooting for 8 hours a day or more. They also used a $400,000 remote controlled camera head on a large gimbal / jib on a boat. All of this and a crew for a month....to shoot ONE episode of a series. So yes it's true, it's very expensive to shoot high quality nature programs.

    Cool lens, sure its all good. But I find anything past the 200mm range, and those heat waves really effect the image quality. Now mind you, your not using this lens to check things out miles away, I get that. But this does seem like a lot of lens then what I would think would be necessary. I'd probably trade some of the reach for speed.

    • @iamwisdomsky
      @iamwisdomsky ปีที่แล้ว +4

      the heat waves you're talking about is something that can't be fixed. it's an outside factor. so I don't understand why you includes that in your complain.

    • @chrisklugh
      @chrisklugh ปีที่แล้ว

      @@iamwisdomsky I was using heat waves as a generic example of all the optical distortions that come with shooting something far away. The most expensive glass in the world, as you also put, cant fix that. So why pay urber amounts of money for a lens that wont do you any better?
      Now I'm aware there are other applications for such a lens, like in sports broadcasting. Getting those close ups of athletes in a relatively small distance relative to the inside of a sporting arena is good.
      So I'm not saying this lens has no place, however there might be better lens out there for any specific task then this one.

    • @Michael-dx8qz
      @Michael-dx8qz ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yep 50-1000 probably makes more sense as a full frame focal range. Unless you’re talking about smaller objects which are less affected by atmospheric distortion by virtue of being closer

      @@benjaminmesa1089 Oh, more then agree for wildlife. I find the class 600mm good. By anything past that has rapidly depreciating returns on what you get out of it.
      Remember. If you want 2x more reach on 600mm, you need 1200mm lens which would literally be twice the size of a lens with a huge price tag. Its better to go with a higher resolution camera and crop in. :)

      @@TimsWildlife Hi Tim, filming wildlife you know that they move around, so the zoom is a big plus for this lens especially with the the servo as it can be adjusted easily and quickly. I get that the prime lenses are great and offer superior image quality but are very restrictive (I use them myself), they don’t have the flexibility for story telling like this lens does. It’s nice to see that we can reach these lengths using more ‘affordable’ lenses and tele converters, but those most certainly aren’t the choice for all situations.
