WOW! They need to make those available for purchase. Although I can't imagine the price for it.

No kidding. Even though it says that he made it out of decommissioned government parts, I image the stuff isn't really readily available.

Pretty impressive stuff. Did anyone notice that the "normal" lens is a 480mm?

I don't know if Andy would use it. How many frames per second? .0008?
