Manufacturing process of a Canon EF 500mm f/4 L IS USM Lens

Ever wonder how Canon makes those Big White Lenses? Take a look at this.

I am sure that Canon does not make all of the glasses themselves. But, for those "L" lenses, it appears that they are making it from scratch. Total video time for all three clips are 15 min.
