This little guy was nice enough to pose for me. 500mm Tamron f8 mirror. (cropped)

Very nice. Great focus and lighting. He was quite the little ham for the camera.

Nice shot of the Killdeer...usually these guys bolt right away...:thumbup:

No offense to you....I know a 500mm mirror is better than having no 500 at all, but the bokeh from this lens is horrible.

I believe this is typical for mirror lens. With the donuts shapped bokeh.

No offense taken. I know the characteristics of these lenses, and the price was right. Like you said, a 500mm mirror is better than nothing.

Thanks for the comments.
