Thank you, Al. Your lens sounds great. I am realising I probably can't afford it and probably can only get a cheaper sigma or older 400mm lens.

There is a A* 1200 for sale on ebay... only it has fungus! Still a bargain at $4500.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Thank you all.
Lenny, I am potentially interested in the 400mm f5.6. I sent a PM to your flickr account because as new user to the forum here I can't communicate via PM.
