500mm F8 SP TELE MACRO (30.5)(55BB) WITH HOOD NORMAL FILTER (REQUIRES ADAPTALL) MANUAL FOCUS TELEPHOTO LENS

Lens in good condition, comes with original hood even.

People love and hate CAT lens. Some love it for the fact that the design of the lens doesnt allow for CA, its basically like a lens with perfect ED elements places inside, the super lightweight/size for the focal length and some hate it for the donut bokeh, slower aperture.

I would leave it to keen buyers to read up on mirror lens, but in most discussion on mirror lens, nikon's surfaces as the top in terms of image quality. I dump money to get this lens immediately after a fellow photog let me take some shots with it.

Lens in MINT condition, comes with leather box, hood and set of colour filters. This is definitely collector's set, easily passed off as new.
