You are not going to see such a combination very often. “Mister Le” has taken some image samples with the Panasonic G2 (which costs $799.00) and the über-expensive Canon EF 800mm f/5.6 L IS USM Lens (£11,099.00 on Amazon UK)

The funny thing is that he used a 2x teleconverter on it…that makes 800mm x2 (converter) x2 (FourThirds) = 3.200mm!!!

That’s VERY COOL !!
Thanks for Sharing 😀
800mm focal length is still 800mm on micro 4/3. However, only half the image circle is used. The magnification is 32x over the “normal” 25mm focal length of micro 4/3. With the 2x teleconverter, the magnification is 64x. Saying that the focal length is 3200mm is misleading, as this implies 128x magnification. Anyway, still cool.
Would love to see a moon shot with this combination.
No, no, no.
Thats putting the G2 on a 10,900$ lens.
And when you finish, you can store the G2 inside the lens hood.
Incredible result on the combination. The question is how much editing needed on the original photos?
However, this is like witnessing Mini Me drive a Hummer.
No editing just a little straightening .
