Holy crap Batman!

"f you couple this lens to a Rebel XTi or EOS 40D you end up with the 35mm-equivalent of 1920/5.6, a 2688/8 with a 1.4x extender, and a 3840/11 with a 2x extender."

I would get into so much trouble with this thing it ain't even remotely funny.
Me and my XTi would be out all the time zooming in on stuff we shouldn't be...

That's 1.2 meters long! Unbelievable.

But short of spying on your neighbors across the street or across town, what would you use it for?
