Be forewarned -- this lens is not for the faint-hearted photographer!
This manual lens has a fixed aperture and no telemetry with your camera. This means that for most Nikon DSLR cameras, it will only work in manual mode. It will not work in aperture priority mode on most cameras. I have a D50, and I have no way of knowing what shutter speed to set using just the camera.
Second, at 500mm and f8, this lens has a very narrow depth of field. There's obviously no AF. Focusing can be difficult. Really difficult.
Third, at fixed f8, shutter speeds in anything but bright sunlight will be slow. You can try operating handheld, but you really need a tripod.
The image quality is adequate, not great. Softness in the image, color shift, some flare - to be honest, I'm still tinkering, so more on this later.
Finally, the t-mount adapter that ships with the lens comes loosely attached, by which I mean the inner thread ring is loose inside the outer t-mount ring (at least, that's what I got). I'm guessing it ships this way so you can align the focus ring correctly so it shows at the top of the camera. However, you'll need to tighten the ring using the four tiny, recessed nuts around the adapter outer edge. To do this you'll need a set of micro-screwdrivers. I say all this because there are NO INSTRUCTIONS with the lens worth reading.
As other online reviews have noted, you get what you pay for. At about $100, this isn't a bad way to explore long focal length photography without spending a fortune. I'm not greatly impressed, but it works.
