Sony SAL-500F80 500mm f/8 Reflex Super Telephoto ...- User Rating: Summary for Sony SAL-500F80 500mm f/8 Reflex Super Telephoto ...- Super Telephoto Lens Notes on Sony SAL-500F80 500mm f/8 Reflex Super Telephoto ...- I bought this lens to take with me to Yellowstone National Park to get the pictures I missed last time. Especially for the wildlife. I have been testing it and was really surprised at the detail it shows. I use it with my Sony DSLR 100, and using "anti shake" I am able to shoot without a tripod.
Of course if you have time, a tripod would be a better choice. With wildlife you don't always have time to set up. Sony SAL-500F80 500mm f/8 Reflex Super Telephoto ...- User Rating: Summary for Sony SAL-500F80 500mm f/8 Reflex Super Telephoto ...- Very Good Lens - My doubts Were Unfounded! Notes on Sony SAL-500F80 500mm f/8 Reflex Super Telephoto ...- I was a little doubtful about using a mirrored lens. My doubts were misplaced. The lens, for nature shots is very good. I get some tremendous shots with the subject matter almost full frame! The f/8 aperture, I was a little concerned when it came to speed but that also proofed to misplaced I've been able to shoot at medium and high speeds 250th to 1,000th. The auto focus is fast, although because of the mirror, in tight spots, has a tendency to hunt so I've selected the the tightest auto focus setting possible. It's reduced the situation but not eliminated it. The lens is light enough for the reduced vibration of the Sony Alpha, it doesn't exceed the limitation thus I really don't need a tripod which is a big plus in bird photography.
