    Default Largest zoom lens on a DSLR?

    Does somebody know what the largest zoom lens avaiable is for a DSLR?
    I thought I saw a 2.600mm somewhere.
    Anyone knows what is the biggest gun that can be attached on a DSLR camera?

    Thank you for the examples!

    The Canon 1.200 is awesome! It's huge, but impressive! The price is also...

    Have a look at the link of the 1.200:
    In the middle of that site is a sample of different lenses and the range: From 24mm, 50mm, 105mm, 800mm, 1.200mm, 1.680mm to 2.400mm!

    Nothing to carry around, but I love the lens!

    A good 1000 lens could be a combinatiof between

    sigma APO 170/500
    and a teleconverter
    2.0X EX APO DG
    you can get a very good lens with less than 1000 euro!!!
    maybe 500 if you find that stuff used!!
