I was gonna order one, but they're Temporarily Out of Stock... If they can't get it to me by tomorrow... I don't want it... :sulkiness:

The user "reviews" on the Amazon site listed in the post are HILARIOUS. I doubt more than one or two of them are from people who actually own this lens.

OMG that hog weighs almost 35 pounds! I could get at least 10 great Nikon lenses for the same money that don't weigh half that combined.

Hope it comes with a tripod collar, Nikon would charge $3,000 for it as an accessory

Wonder how much the lens cap alone would cost! LOL

A bunch I am sure, don't lose it!

This one also takes drop in filters, but unlike the 39mm filters I use on my 300mm f/2.8 and 600mm f/4 Nikkors, this one takes 72mm filters!

A review by that Nikon guy (below) shows how it performs. I'd rather get the Nikon 200-400 than that behemoth. I wonder what is the significance of it being green? The Hulk? Godzilla? Ya that result of handholding it is pretty hilarious. I had to laugh in spite of myself.
