a bad ass camera lens

i just picked up this new lens for my camera. this thing can be adapted to most any digital camera, and the quality is FANTASTIC! it is even better than i anticipated.take a look at these pictures.


bear in mind when looking at these, that they are all taken from the same place. i am leaning up against the spare tire on my wifes jeep.

this shot is with te camera in normal mode with no soom.



this one is with the camera zoomed i to its max.



now here is where things get crazy! the next shot is with this new fandango zoom lens on the camera.



now... you are starting to get the idea... bear in mind, now that this is a run of the mill camera.. well, maybe not "run of the mill" but it is very compact. it is a canon s400 4.0 mp digital camera.



that shot just blows me away! all 4 of those are from the same position leaning against the tire. now, i'm sure if i had a tripod, i could have made that last one a bit clearer, but it is pretty difficult to hold that still.



the picture above is the camera i used for all of these photos.



this is the lens that i used to get such ZOOM.
if anyone is interested in where, or how much... this is the place.

That sure is impressive.

Even these old eyes can almost read the newspaper print. Go get the tri-pod, do it again. I want to read that article !

Your pics look pretty good, as far as I can tell from compressed JPEGs. The pictures on their web site show horrendous chromatic aberrations in the longer zoom range.

Don't expect miracles from a $150 lens. Not that it can't be used to take great pictures.

In fact what some people can do with less than most excellent equipment is simply amazing.

Great find! Thanks for sharing.
