I think this is the best lens for amateur photograpers for bird, wild life and ,maybe, sport photograhy. It is very light for a focal length of 500mm (750 mm effective digital), and the aperture of f8 is adequate under bright light for the careful manual focusing required. Camera shake is a major concern of course, and a shutter speed of 1/500 sec is needed if a tripod is not used (1/200 sec even with antishake cameras).For use with SLR digital cameras, the shutter lock setting must be set to off, because the camera does not know that a lens is attached. At a price of around $100 new (Mine was bought on ebay for $60), it improves your chance of getting a good picture of a nervous or remote subject. It is made as a screw mount lens, and a t-mount adapter (about $15) is needed for each specific camera. If you have two different model cameras, the lens can be shared for the cost of an additional t-mount.

  Nikon D60 with Mirror Lens
Review created: 06/13/09
by:

Okay we got this lens yesterday and put it through a little test. Macro shots are nice and yes they are sharp even though it is a mirror lens. Bokah is really nice. Photos taken with diffused light turned out well although you need to use higher ISO setting. Tried long shots with 2x teleconverter and tripod they are a bit soft but if you work with your ISO and shutter speed you can get good shots of landscape and distant objects. 500mm only with out tripod photos can be done but you will need several shots to compensate for motion blur. At 1000mm it is possible to get shots but you need to be steady handed. If you need a cost effective lens for shots at a distance this works well. On a D60 Nikon you can only use manual mode otherwise there is no lens mounted. I would say you get a decent lens for your money all things considered.
