This one has been sitting on my desk for waayyy too long. I hate the thought of testing it. Not because of the lens but the focal length ...

You need it a lens to visit the zoo?

Or airshows, or car races, or national parks.
It's a specialized lens, of course - as are many others.

You know adjust those laws of physics or something.
What they can do is develop advanced deconvolution for their RAW converter, with detailed lens profiling for the lens. Then they could (mostly) undo what diffraction "lost". Canon offers such functionality in combination with DPP and Canon lenses and lens profiles.
Here is an example, where the diffraction is known (lens profile, but in this example it is simulated diffraction):

In the middle is the original image. On the left is the simulated f32 diffraction image. On the right is the f32 deconvoluted image. I understand that this f32 is in FF terms, so f16 in MFTerms.

Nice example. It makes me wonder how they do it.
