I dont think you will be able to get anything in focus but a point at f/0.95 :roll:

I've seen images taken with one of these lenses, a friend has one.
The images are very soft, but for an astronomical camera if you are only photographing large phenomena like faint aurorae where speed is more important than sharpness, it is a great lens. The same applies for my Nikon 55mm f/1.2... which I should have modified to fit the DSLRs one of these days.
