i was hoping for cameras with silly numbers i.e. very very long focal lengths (x000mm) or incredibly small apertures (f/9001)

- roywiggins 4y agoThe Nikon COOLPIX P1000 has a very silly 3000mm equivalent superzoom. https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/nikon-coolpix-p1000 https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/nikon-coolpix-p1000 For silly apertures, you want the Pinhole Pro Max. https://www.pcmag.com/news/hands-on-thingyfys-pinhole-pro-max-is-a-multi-pinhole-zoom-lens https://www.pcmag.com/news/hands-on-thingyfys-pinhole-pro-ma...

- staindk 4y agoI loved this[1] recent video by DIY Perks and think you would enjoy it too. He essentially builds a housing for a lens with a massive aperture. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cT0jXI7l4E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cT0jXI7l4E
- mgdlbp 4y agoWould you be interested in a true 3248 mm f/8? https://www.telescope.com/Astrophotography/Astrophotography-Telescopes/Orion-16-f8-Truss-Tube-Ritchey-Chretien-Astrograph/pc/-1/c/4/sc/19/p/137265.uts https://www.telescope.com/Astrophotography/Astrophotography-... Telescopes do tend to prefer specifying girth rather than length, though.
- dekhn 4y agoI've used a refractor (4" lens, f7, 714mm focal length) as a telephoto. It's great. I ended up buying a crazy-ass lens and building a solar telescope (look at the sun) which was fun until the focal point melted the enclosure.
