There's one guy on a forum that's got a 16MP Avigilon hooked up to a 400-600mm Sigma lens with a 2X teleconverter, giving up to a 1200mm focal length... they use it to look at activity at the far end of an open-pit mine. He has sample images looking at a city skyline some 6.5km away, and they are REALLY sharp.
