Reviews

Mirror lens for Canon 60D5.0/5

Mirror lens for Canon 60D This is a great telephoto lens for the price from this retailer. Could not find a better deal on Ebay. Lens does fully what I expected and was very affordable. Manual focus is not a problem on this lens as the camera will need to be mounted on a tripod to insure clear pictures. Brief use showed crystal clear images.

poor item3.0/5

poor item Opteka 500mm is cheap looking, plastic body. The item is warped and scratch. anyways, the qualtiy ot this produt is very poor although its a brand-new item. I loved cheap lens but I decided to save money to buy highend lens. no more poor lens. thanks,

Good mirror lens4.0/5

Good mirror lens The lens itself is great. The fact that it's an f/6.3 nice, but beware the teleconverter. I screwed it in to the t-mount adapter and the threads came out of the teleconverter itself. Now I can't use the lens without it. Seeking a pipe wrench to get it out now
