This is what you get when combining two f/1.4 "normal" lenses ....



The magnification is around 1:1 and effective aperture is still approx. f/2. Thus hand-helds shooting is easy because shutter speeds can be very fast.

Yes, birds on the beach hesitating to take off when children or dogs are coming around.

Interestingly, the image reminded me of the eye on the bottom of the glass on the left.
