The new 200-400 mm Canon lens for $13,000.00?? Locked

I've been trying to work out the status of that review, since I first saw it a couple of days ago. I would have thought anybody who has been given official access to this lens would have signed an NDA, so either Canon has sanctioned the 'review' (such as it is) or he has got hold of the lens unofficially. But whichever, I suspect he has no more idea of the price than you or I.

By the way, in the video there's a classic example of why real photographers can be the worst people to get technical info from. At 1:27 he describes IS Mode 3 as "for use on a tripod" - has he never used any of the MkII superteles?
