Tokina 500mm f/8 Mirror Lens - Minolta SR
The Tokina 500mm f/8 is a compact catadioptric (mirror) lens, offering a significant focal length in a lightweight and portable form factor. Due to its mirror design, it is much shorter than a conventional 500mm telephoto lens and produces characteristic 'doughnut' shaped bokeh in out-of-focus highlights. It is a fixed-aperture lens, meaning exposure must be controlled via shutter speed or ND filters.
