Ooo impressive focal length.
Got any pics of something so we can see the bokeh?

The donut's can look pretty cool in the right situation. I just haven't figured out what that "right situation" is

A donut shop.

the bokeh is a lot more natural on this Nikkor than my smaller tokina. Still produces the dough nuts but its more subtle and not in every situation.

How much was that tokina 500mm f8? And is it an ai lens?
>> thefamilyman !!rTVzm2BgTOa
>>136472
the tokina was dirt cheap. performs well for its price but its nothing compared to the nikkor.
both are Ai lenses.
>> Anonymous
does the nikkor autofocus?
>> thefamilyman !!rTVzm2BgTOa
>>136477
no, this lens started production in 1961 and ended in 1970, well before AF.
As fas as i know, all reflex lenses are MF except the Sony Alpha.

i'm googling about the opteka 500mm which is like $70 on ebay

then there's the opteka 500mm preset lens, looks like a sniper scope

what's that?
>> fence !!POey2hdozCZ
>>136481

it's a cheap, slow 500mm lens. you get what you pay for with these things.
>> Anonymous
>>136500

if it had the nikkor tag, i'm sure you'd buy it
>> fence !!POey2hdozCZ
>>136503

no need. i've already got one from quantaray with an F mount screwed on.

it sucks.

It looks like it would make a good weapon in a pinch.

i managed to get the only plane that flies over us like once every few weeks.
it was pretty hard to follow with such a narrow field of view.

I'm still amazed at how xbox huge it is. My 500/5.6 is like 1.5 times smaller in every dimension.
