Sigma APO 200-500 F/2.8

Perhaps the most “sensible” of the items presented in this list, this is nevertheless one of the heftiest tele zoom lenses for SLR cameras around. While the zoom range of 200-500mm is nothing new or exciting, it’s the maximum aperture of an incredible f/2.8 throughout the focal range that makes this such a special lens.


Zeiss Apo Sonnar T* 1700 mm F4

For people who have been into photography for a while, the name Carl Zeiss means top of the line optical quality, usually with a matching price tag. While continuing to produce their top-of-the-line optics for various camera systems, Zeiss have more recently also begun cooperating with Nokia and Sony, making optics for their mobile phones and digital cameras


Polaroid 20×24” Camera

The biggest ‘instant’ camera I know of is Polaroid’s 20×24” behemot. It’s 1.5 meters tall and weighs in at 106 kilos. The Polaroid paper sheets used in this camera is, as the name implies, 20 x 24”, which equals 50×60 cm. Keeping in mind that the aforementioned 135 film is a mere 3.6 x 2.4 cm, it’s easy to see why such a larger-than-life camera would be capable of producing prints of far superior detail compared to smaller formats.


Seitz 6×17” digital panoramic camera

nstead of the common digital camera sensor which records the entire scene at once, the Seitz 6×17” uses a scanner to literally scan the view through the lens. The end result is 160 megapixel images in a panoramic format. It does the job a bit faster than your average flatbed scanner though, recording a full-sized frame (21 250 x 7500 pixels) in two seconds. It’s big, it’s heavy (5 kilos if you wish to use it outside a studio) and quite silly, but it turns out huge, amazing photos – and it should, costing as it does $42 000.



Hasselblad H3DII

Swedish camera manufacturer Hasselblad (or “‘blad” as they are often called) has for a long time been ranked among the very best when it comes to cameras. Indeed, NASA’s space programme chose Hasselblad as their camera provider, and three Hasseblads where carried aboard the Apollo 11 mission, perhaps the company’s most famous feat.
Priced at around $40 000, a Hasselblad H3DII with a 39 megapixel backpiece is one of the most expensive photo kits available in ordinairy retail sale. It’s fairly large, fabulously expensive and capable of creating huge, extremely detailed image files with its 39 megapixel, 48×36mm sensor.



Canon EF 1200mm f/5.6L USM

While the 1700mm lens mentioned earlier is all fine and dandy if you’ve got a truck to mount it onto, some may prefer a more lightweight, nimble sollution. Weighing a mere 16.5 kilos and being only 83 centimeters long (without the bucket-like hood), this delicate little flower will nevertheless magnify faraway objects (or perhaps more relevant, faraway people) to a degree that will leave little to the imagination. To my knowledge, this is the longest focal length available to autofocus SLR cameras without using any extra magnifiers.The suggested price of the lens upon unveiling in 1993, converted to present day money puts it at apx. $120 000, or the cost of “a small sports car” which is the most common price comparison given for the lens.
