1080mm Lens
I was playing with an old webcamera. I took it apart and removed the lens that was on there. I used a 50mm f/2.0 lens meant for a 35mm camera. Since the webcamera have a 1/4" sensor size. The Lens crop is about 21.6X giving me 1080mm from a 50mm lens.

The distance from the sensor to this lamp was about 7ft. The lens used on the 35mm camera would show the whole ceiling fan. I have a 300mm lens which I will try to use to shoot the radio antenna which is about 1.17 miles away.
