There were a few of these long lenses on ebay a while back, all mint but engraved with Israeli army markings. Not the kind of things to take certain parts of the world.

Long-distance Photography
The PF can be used for improving visibility through certain kinds of fog or haze. This property is particularly important for long-distance photography on the ground where the detail of distant objects is often obscured by haze. It is also useful for high altitude, and especially oblique photography from the air like when landing an airplane in a foggy airport. Actually, the PF does not always result in a very striking increase in the range of vision, but it generally increases the contrast of the distant objects and thus the amount of detail that can be seen.
