While I didn't own that lens, I was able to use one when I was living in 
Calgary. Apparently a local photographer had bought one, used it for a 
project, and then was trying to sell it. I played with the thing for a 
couple of hours. It has a 270º angle of view, so it can actually see 
behind itself. IIRC, I could have bought the thing for ~$10k at that 
time (early 1980s)

Yet, oddly enough, an ounce of gold weighs more than an ounce of 
feathers. Go figure.

Depends on the bird. 

Obviously cormorant plumage is the most expensive and the heaviest, pound for 
pound, in the world because of its very high beauty content. 

It is also remarkable that if you drop a cormorant off the Tower of Pisa in a 
vacuum, it follows a rapid perpendicular arc towards the centre of the earth.
