Hi friends,
as I can't afford myself to buy a 2000mm. reflex-nikkor I took a Coolpix (L3) and a Nikon AP-5 automatic level (aka theodolite). Look for some pics at http://www.nicovandijk.net/levelpics.htm It worked with a Coolpix 2000 too. I am now working on a Nikon D1-combo.
Enjoy your weekend.

Re: Cheap digi-tele combo
Hi,
I do something similar, but in the other direction. I have an attachment that hangs the camera onto a microscope eyepiece and makes for a super-macro lens!
later!

Re: Cheap digi-tele combo
Thanks everybody for showing your experiments. I've found a combination of a D1X + EL-Nikkor 2.8/50mm + AP-5 Aut. Level. It is difficult to measure the total focal length, but it comes close to 2000 mm. Aperture? Beyond f/64. I'll post pics later (it's world cup fever in Holland and there is a thunder storm right now).
Stay tuned + all the best.

Above the combination Nikon D1X + EL-Nikkor 2.8/50mm + Nikon AP-5. I had to place the EL-Nikkor in between to get a full frame picture. I'll post the results later.

Below my first attempt.
Picture taken with a lens with angle equal to 50mm. standard lens.
Picture with the D1X-EL-Nikkor-AP5 combo of the top of the mill in the centre.
I'll try more. But first I have to remove the level cross inside the automatic level.
