Well, Rachel,

To me it's not the money that's the main issue, it's just that the lens is white and attracts a lot of attention and so that's why I'm selling it. Also for the same weight and a savings of $92,000 one can get the superb and rare Green Sigma!

Mine is bigger!

I have an 1800mm f12 lens - aka my planetary telescope - which attaches to my dslr's with a simple 'T-ring' adaptor. Not quite as well corrected or as bright, nor is it autofocus, but it costs around $119,400 less, and comes complete with an aluminium case and motorised tripod.

Think of all the G10's you buy with that money!
Fill a memory card, throw the camera away!
You could do that for the rest of your life!
