Product Description
An Opteka High Definition 500mm preset telephoto lens incorporates not only computer optical design, but also the latest optical multi-coating techniques. The process of multi-coating assures virtually flare free photographs even under adverse lighting conditions resulting in crisp, high contrast pictures.
Preset Lenses are designed to retain a full range of exposure, automation and metering capabilities of the cameras on which they are mounted. This lens is great for nature and sports photography. The amazing power of this lens gives you the equivalent of looking through a pair of 10x power binoculars. It has a manual preset diaphragm, a rotating tripod mounting collar and a soft lens pouch.
Advances in high-index / low-dispersion optical glasses, new barrel materials, and exotic anti-reflection coatings, along with the latest in computer-aided-design / computer-aided-manufacturing, are combined to produce lenses of unprecedented quality. Diamond-cut from crystal-clear, water-white optical glass, Opteka lenses are ground and polished to a precise precision.

By judy
I purchased this lens for wildlife around my home and for when were out camping.The pictures I get are awesome! Im not a pro and just wanted a lens to play with, so for astarter lens I was really happy. I also bought the extended ring that goes between the camera andthe lens which I didn't know came with the lens when I purchased it. So I have a second collar.Other than that the choice for me was a good one. But unfortunely this purchase only makes me wanta bigger one now for more distance. LOL.Judy

I bought this lens after researching quite abit and looking around for something affordable. i first saw the price and read the reviews and thought what everyone thinks "you get what you pay for". but decided what the hell lets try it out. Once i got it and examined it a bit, it turned out to be a pretty sturdy piece. pretty heavy but that was expected. It came with the 2x adapter and T-mount adapter which is great. So i strapped it on first without the 2x adapter and was really suprised on the quality. no its not "canon" glass but it does the job very well. make sure you tighten the adapter tight enough because if you dont it can start to unscrew when you focus. yes its preset to f/8 and not an AF lens, but if you know what your doing that not a huge problem. even if your not an experienced photgrapher, youll get use to it. i didnt need a tripod for day shots or even shady shots. night shots or dark areas, yes tripod will most likely be needed. Then i tried it with the 2x adapter, and wow it zooms pretty far. but it can get pretty shaky without a tripod. without the adapter is more practical, but it is very handy.Overall im very happy with this lens. the price is great and its does a great job at what its used for. i would highly recommend this for someone looking to buy an innexpensive telephoto lens. Even if your new or an experienced photgrapher, its a great buy for the price and easy to get use to. ill post some pics i took using it at 500mm. But if your questioning the price and wondering if its worth it..dont. Definately worth more than the price.

By Jasmine
I am just now venturing into wildlife photography and needed a little bit more reach to get out there. As a novice photographer I wanted to try something within my budget. I did a little testing on the Opteka 500mm f/8 preset supertelephoto lens and the results are what I expected. One thing to note you HAVE to read the instructions that came with the product. That way you get the best results for your product.In the field test study the clarity is great, the edges are a little soft, but nothing a little editing, and I mean very little editing I did to sharpen the subject. I also went into my camera and tweeked the sharpness before using this sweet little find. You have to be familiar with your camera settings to get the best clarity for this type of lens.Everything is manual focus here, you just have to find your sweet spot in this lens which is not hard to find. Overall rating I really should give it a 5.
