This 500mm f/8.0 Telephoto T-Mount Lens from Rokinon is a tremendous lens for anyone shooting at a distance from their subject, including sports and wildlife photography. It's lightweight (22.6 oz/641 g) and compact (just 11.7"/29.7cm long) and it focuses as close as 33' (10m). The aperture range is f/8.0 to f/32.0. This manual focus lens has an aluminum alloy body with Diamond Black finish, with fully multi-coated low-dispersion optical glass, with a 67mm front filter thread. A T-ring adapter (available separately) is required to mount this lens to a camera body.

    Comments about Rokinon 500mm f/8.0 Telephoto T-Mount Lens:

    This Rokinon (Samyang) 500mm is a perfectly decent lens. For my documentary film style, which is of composed shots, this lens works very well, and I've gotten some beautiful shots. For a run-and-gun filmmaker or photographer, the limitations of the lens might be a problem. And it does have some definite limitations: f/8 at its fastest; no image stabilization; and no auto-focus. But, as a filmmaker, I find it very effective within those limitations. The lens is physically well-made, being of well-finished metal. I use a t-mount adaptor from Vivitar (probably also a re-branded Samyang) and the 2x adapter. An amazing value.
