I was not familiar with it but had seen Attila's and flickr photos from the 500 and was lusting after that lens, its not often on ebay and just happened to show up on craiglist 1 hr drive from home in Eugene, Oregon. I asked and Attila indicated the deal was pretty good so I jumped on it. I am off tomorrow hopefully the weather will be decent long enough to give them a try. _________________ photos are moments frozen in time |

Fantastic! Contrast is great too.
I picked up a well-used Rubinar 1000 f/10, and it's quite sharp.
It must be close to being the same size as your f/5.6. _________________ "The eyes are useless when the mind is blind."

I finally got the Rubinar 500mm f5.6 after reading from this forum. And I was amazed at the images I have gotten thus far. Of course I would not say it is sharper than my Canon 300mm f4L (partly because I am still trying to get use to manual focusing) and shooting fast moving bird in flight is impossible for me. And I find that hand holding it while shooting was very very difficult unless I push up the shutter speed to at least 1/600 or more... even with EM5's excellent IS system.
But all in all... pretty happy with the US$200 spent on this lens. |
