Nikon Reflex-Nikkor 500mm f/8

The Nikon Reflex-Nikkor 500mm f/8 is a compact super-telephoto lens utilising a catadioptric (mirror) design. This construction allows for a significantly shorter and lighter barrel compared to traditional refractive lenses of the same focal length. It is characterised by its fixed f/8 aperture and 'doughnut-shaped' bokeh in out-of-focus highlights. The lens is capable of focusing down to 1.5 metres, offering a respectable macro reproduction ratio for a telephoto.
