I'm sure you're right. But it's not impossible - see http://www.fujifilm.eu/uploads/tx_ff.../XA101x_01.pdf And it goes out to 1800mm with a teleconverter. Suitable for a 2/3" sensor. With a bit of engineering it could be attached to a digicam. Maybe not for handheld use though... EU 104,417.60 Andrew.
