digitmstr Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 It's amazing how fast and how far :) NASA progressed once they dumped their Nikon glass ;p Sorry, I have already reserved those lenses... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitmstr Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 "The telescope, which looks like a pair of binoculars, consists of two 200-millimeter telephoto camera lense" Ah, that's were all the EF 200mm f/1.8 went! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpowis Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 And I've seen pictures of telescope made with four of these lenses (but maybe those were the FD version). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carnagex_carnagex Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 what digital backs are the lenses mounted to ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awindsor Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 I cannot find any information on the sensors but I would expect that they are low megapixel very high sensitivity Peltier cooled sensors. I doubt they use high megapixel commercial digital backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
