As for the price, you'd probably have to take out a 2nd and 3rd mortgage on your house, donate a few internal organs, and promise your first-born to afford it.
Forget about wildlife shots...well, unless you're able to keep silent humping that thing around.

On second thought, after having seen the picture of the behemoth, does it come with a weight lifter ???
Maybe concert shooters? Or cloudy day wildlife? I don't know, but it's pretty freaking sweet!!
And who knows...with the 2x attached and a good clear summer night , you just might be able to catch a Martian watching reruns of My Favorite Earthling
"The drums rolled louder. Fires leapt up. Great engines crawled across the field; and in their midst was a huge telephoto lens, great as a forest tree a hundred feet in length, swinging on mighty chains. Long had it been forging in the dark smithies of Mordor, and its hideous head, founded of apochromatic glass, was shaped in the likeness of a ravening lightbucket; on it a handy LCD display lay. Grond they named it, in memory of the Hammer of the Underworld of old. Great beasts drew it, orcs surrounded it, and behind walked mountain-trolls to weild it."
Apologies to the unfamiliar, this was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the pictures of this thing.
Love it! Very appropriate. So, now my favorite nicknames are SigZilla or Grond.

I'll get a .50 cal turret mounted to the roof of my truck and slap that baby up there. Uh Huh...size matters!
