You can take all the glass out of a 400mm lens and it will still need a tri or monopod. It aint the glass it's all the motors and metal that makes them heavy.
A few unusual lenses at https://www.premiumbeat.com/blog/10-incredible-camera-lenses/
Hi thanks for the reply. I have the Canon auto bellows, just after the two canon macro lenses. Not sure what is a best offer, as a retired pensioner $s are a bit limited. Let me know what you would take as a minimum offer just for the lenses. thanks, regards....Rod Letts....
I specifically want to try these lenses, I have the FD bellows. These two lenses were designed especially for macro work in conjunction with the canon bellows.
I would would like to play around with these if I can get hold of them at a reasonable cost, I'm in Australia. Maybe someone out there has either one or both that they no longer need and would part with them at a reasonable cost?? regards.... RodL ....
Thanks Jerry but most of them are advertised as mint or in good condition for top $s I only want them to pull apart so I am looking for any with stuffed optics. Thanks
Hi I'm in Australia and after any Canon FDn lenses in any condition, eg. fungus, broken glass etc but with undamaged bodies (scratches and wear is OK) please reply with price I am in Victoria 3152. Thanks ....Rod....
Yes Jerry I have several Sony mirror-less cameras NEX5, NEX7 and a A7mkII and I use a range of lenses, some Sony ( the SEL 18-200, and the SEL10-18) are decent lens, but still use a few Canon FD and EF lenses, while some of the FD lenses are quite good my Canon 70-200 f2.8L gets the most use on the A7 camera. I also have a few CCTV lenses that are good to experiment with from time to time, range covers pin hole up to a 2000mm f/4 telescope, a Meade telescope, a Russian 1000mm f/11 and a few microscope objectives. Three different adaptors covers all my needs.
