  • 800 to 1600 to 3200mm Super Mega Telescope Mirror Lens. Super Zoom is usually very expensive and to top that it can be very big… let's try to solve most of these problems… Here comes the mirror lens! 800mm is good enough for about 250 to 300 bucks? It has many brand names, like Samyang, Optika… and here in France, I got my hands on the Walimex. It's a very old technology but it responds to all of the problems above… but the most interesting is adding a double, to get more zoom!

    Try to get a screw in lens hood, or sun shade.
    With the mirror lens, you want to avoid unfocused light going straight through.
    I have a 500mm f/8, with a Ø72mm metal lens hood.
    It hugely improves the contrast.
    Without hood: difficult to get a usable contrast after post processing.
    With hood: almost usable picture without post processing.
    The reduced contrast looks like atmospheric haze, but when you get the same haze at close ups, you realize it's caused by the lens.
    My lens hood, is approximately the length of the lens, I think that's about how long you want.
    It looks like the lens is twice as long, while the overall weight is not much different.
    I think a lens hood should be included with minor lenses, because it is significant to improve contrast, at least the shops should recommend one as accessory by default.

    Do the air currents (mirage) explain why you can't have a longer shutter time with a lower ISO ? Also is it worth double the price for a f/6.3 500mm vs. f/8 500mm mirror lens ?

    • @migueldesa0031
      @migueldesa0031  4 роки тому

      Well, between 500 and 800mm it depends on your needs.
      A shorter shutter will avoid unwanted shaking on the image, that amount of zoom it's a very big problem.

    Doesnt the Canon have a manual focus switch on the body?

    • @migueldesa0031
      @migueldesa0031  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Samuel! The one I used on this doesn't have. But it doesn't matter. First, because the camera will try to add all the info that it can in to the metadata, and second, it isn't the focus the problem... It is the focal length and aperture. The 2x adapter is taking 0 info from the lens and multiplying it, has 0x2=error (because aperture or focal length cannot be 0)
      At least it is what I think it is doing.... As just cutting the communication between de doubler and the camera fix it.

      The Nikon p1000 just for the simplicity of use (auto focus and stuff). Still a small sensor... If I didn't have any camera, very small budget, and I love to photograph birds (just an example) the P1000 looks like a good deal!

    Do you recommend this to astrophotography? Or it's better a telescope with mirrors like the Maksutov?

    • @migueldesa0031
      @migueldesa0031  5 років тому +1

      Hi! You made me Google it for info 🤔😅 for the moon this lens is not bad. For a deep space the telescope has more an advantage as it has more aperture (f15) as well more zoom (2700mm). But of course the telescope will need an adaptor for the camera, and it will be be a little bit harder to find a compatible star tracker, that it's advisable on this type of Deep Space Photography.
      P. S. I used the Sky Watcher 180mm telescope as reference

    An 105mm filter of decent quality is more expensive than this lens. Otherwise a very cheap 105mm filter will seriously deteriorate further the not so great optical quality of this lens. At 3200 mm with teleconverters and little digital zoom, you can certainly shoot Saturn or Jupiter planet.
    Of course long shutter speed is needed, the quality will be poor but it is interesting.

    • @migueldesa0031
      @migueldesa0031  3 роки тому

      @AgnostosGnostos 3 роки тому

      Miguel de Sá Thank you for the reply. The f/8 is indeed an issue. I have the autofocus Sony 500mm f/8 reflex mirror lens and the pellicle mirror of the LA-EA4 adapter for my Sony a7 III reduces half a stop the light.
      Only with bright daylight during noon I can shoot easily handheld with fast autofocus.
      When I use a polarizing filter the f/8 becomes f/16 and then I need a tripod and manual focus.

      Hi 13! So, although it's a close technology of a telescope (filters on the back) in lenses any minimal difference between the lens and sensor cut the capability of focusing on the infinity, as macro tubes.
      But I guess it has space for a DIY solution between the lens and EF lens mount 😉
