Could it be the Pentax mirror lens? Or > is this a new EF lens? If it was a new lens... Hannu would be the one to get it. He's been a Canon guy "for ever"... and probably the best adverticement Canon has had here. But this time it sounds like a mistake. And the camera... EOS 5. Of course he might have one as backup camera and used it at this time... but he has used EOS 1 series (with all the expensive lenses) for long time (AFAIK). And now he's been doing some shooting with digital (and gotten a lot of critique for doing so. ...well to be fair, he has gotten critique for some digital manipulation - most of which were clearly experiments in both getting the image he "saw" at the time and probably to raise conversation. Of course, he might have turned completely to digital... I would not know that). So, to me, looks like it might be a mistake.
