Ok...wanting to get a few opinions on this lens.
1000mm Mirror Lens for Sony Alpha DSLR-A100 A300 A350 - eBay (item 200366860206 end time Aug-24-09 14:58:01 PDT)
I know there is no AF and it got a fixed f/8....so my real question is would this be a good lens for the money as far as using a tripod and using it for casual zoom.....or would using a 2x Teleconverter with my 75x300 be a better investment even though I would loose the f stops of light? I know it wont give me Nation Geographic quality and has a limited field of focus. Also know that it is mirror based and not refraction. I have done allot of reading up on these types of lenses but I would just like a point of view from someone that either has one of these or has used one.
Any opinion or advise will be greatly appreciated.
