from Ritz Summary: I have had the Quantaray Mirror 500mm for several years. After I got past the contrast issue, I finally got the hang of it. I think it is a good lens to "capture the moment", but haven't figured out yet how to make a sharper image. When I did get a good image, it may have been just luck. My best experience was taking pictures of the Orca Whales in the Puget Sound. I was amazed at myself that I could focus so fast, (since the focus mechanism is backward) catching the whales jumping in and out of the water. I got great close-ups. And all that from a rocking boat no less! Strengths: Close up shots in nature when it is difficult to get close. Weaknesses: Confusion with focus mechanism
Not particularly clear Similar Products Used: Sigma 35-135mm
Quantaray 28mm Customer Service: It would probably be better to go with a more expensive single lens if you are looking to buy a new lens for close up photography. However, if you already have one of these or get it for free, go ahead and experiement with it, you might be surprised.
