Then we had a go with a tiny Pentax Q, which extended the angle of view to 5600mm. Focusing, unfortunately, was pretty much impossible with either camera.<\/p>\n<p>Our own Jon Devo even managed to handhold the 16.5kg whopper!<\/p>\n<p><em><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/instagram.com\/p\/r7QfVYSmxW\/embed\/\" width=\"400\" height=\"467\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/em><br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/amateurphotographer.co.uk\/photo-gallery\/showgallery.php?cat=1579\">You can see our gallery of our time with the 1200mm monster lens here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re tempted, MPB&#8217;s listing for the lens is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mpbphotographic.co.uk\/used-equipment\/used-lenses\/used-canon-fit-lenses\/canon-ef-1200mm-f56-l-usm-1\">here<\/a>.
