These aren't FF so they can't possibly be any good!
Can they?

I think you need a FF Keyboard with a CAPS KEY and puntuation
keys.

Oh! .... and a browser with a spell checker!

They are rubbish. Just send them a message from their webpage
saying something like..... Tell me how to cancel my membership?

I just got a reply saying it had been cancelled. They
must just scan messages for the word "cancel"

Very nice and balanced set. I like the sky on the last one.

It's all to do with the focal length changing as it's focused
closer. IF lenses focus by changing the focal length.

This article should cover it.....

It's usually only the animal products such as gelatin that
go off, hence freezing preserves that part.

No empty black tubes with no lettering are being ridiculed

That's a long way off being a product

They could at least show a LEGO mockup of the camera

Nearly all the lenses released in the last few years have
been full frame. It would be very difficult to make a tele
that only covers APS-C. I remember some patents showing
the FF image circle.

If they do make a FF camera it will have only been given the OK
recently. The 100-400mm will have been developed years ago.

The old 80-320mm is a very good FF lens if you can find one
without the wobbly barrel My Tokina 80-400mm is also
FF even though 400mm isn't long enough for FF.

Most 400mm lenses are only 400mm at infinity.

EDIT: From 2 years ago Patents for 23mm and 27mm both
cover FF circle...
