    Manual focus, no metering, a whopping 1 f-stop aperture range, chromatic aberrration and coma up the wazzo.

    Welcome to the world of the inexpensive novelty lens.

    But cheap, if you want a big one.

    4 lens elements in two groups ?!?! Not much correction going on in there.
    Sounds like a cheap spotting scope converted for SLR's.

    And that stuff sells every day, retarded or not.

    There was a real long lens here, but looks like it sold. It was used, so it only cost $120,000.00.
